Gwen Battad Ishikawa is the Managing Editor of The Hawai‘i Herald, a semimonthly publication that covers Hawai‘is Japanese American community. As a second-generation Filipina, her goal is to make her Filipino-Japanese-Okinawan son aware of his ethnic heritage and to instill in him the plantation work ethic taught to her by her grandparents. She continues her interest in dancing hula and still strives to become a bon dance aficionado.
