The Star Bulletin has an article about an exhibit at the Japanese Cultural Center of Hawaii:

Without formality: The photographer's goal was to capture images of nisei as they really lived by Joleen Oshiro

It's a very touching story and is accompanied by some great photos from the exhibition. Be sure to click on the link for "More photographs from the collection in Portfolio" for additional photos.
