Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox person Hiroko Yoda is a Japanese entrepreneur, translator, writer, folklorist, and president of the localization company AltJapan Co., Ltd.[1] She was also a Tokyo city editor for the CNN travel website CNNGo.[2] She is a translator of video games[3] and the author of numerous books about Japanese history and culture. She is particularly known for her pioneering work contextualizing yokai culture for English-speaking audiences.[4][5]
Education
Born in Tokyo, she studied at the University of Maryland, then earned a Master's degree in International Peace and Conflict Resolution from American University in Washington, D.C.[6][7]
Personal life
In 2005, she played the role of a yokai frog in the Takashi Miike film The Great Yokai War.[8][9] She also had a cameo in the 2010 Tomoo Haraguchi film Death Kappa.[10]
In 2008, she was denied a Facebook account. She was told that "Facebook blocks the registration of a number of names that are frequently abused on the site. The name Yoda, also being the name of a popular Star Wars character, is on this list of blocked names."[11] The company only relented after her plight gained international mass media attention alongside other cases of banned names.[12][13]
She is married to the writer and television personality Matt Alt.[14]
