While raising four children, Egami became part of the Issei artist and literary community in Southern California. She wrote and edited for the Rafu Shimpo, the literary journal Shūkaku, and Hokubei Shijin Kyokai, the first inter-regional Japanese literary association in the U.S.

During WWII, the Egami family was removed from their Pasadena home and incarcerated first at the Tulare Assembly Center and Gila River. She became a writer for the Gila News Courier, authoring two serial columns, "Fujin no Sekai" (Women's World) and "Pen no Shizuku" (Ink Drop). pic.twitter.com/k8NDtvIt5N

In "Fujin no Sekai," Egami tried to re-energize Japanese speakers in the camp, telling people to live on with a strong spirit even in the face of injustice and despair. She also encouraged women to get involved in social events and to seek out educational opportunities in camp.

Egami also kept a diary during her incarceration that was later translated and published. In addition to documenting many aspects of camp life, she wrote astute observations about the impacts of the forced removal and looked for ways to keep smiling as a form of survival. pic.twitter.com/cxu25wjCtg

Though there is no information about what happened to the Egami family after the war, Hatsuye left Gila River by herself for Topaz on March 20, 1943. She later received an indefinite leave of clearance and left for Cincinnati, Ohio.

History teachers often lead the efforts to preserve elements of the Japanese American incarceration that others have tried to erase. In Tulare, CA, Mr. Mendoza’s class acted when they learned there was nothing to mark the Tulare Assembly Center. ourvalleyvoice.com/2022/06/02/tul…
