Clifton Truman Daniel, the eldest grandson of President Harry Truman, with atomic bomb survivor Shigeko Sasamori.
Mrs. Sasamori was 13 years old when the atomic bomb destroyed Hiroshima. She was so badly burned that she was unrecognizable. During 1955, she was brought to NY for reconstructive plastic surgery with a group of 25 young girls known as the “Hiroshima Maidens.” Mrs. Sasamori now resides in the US and has dedicated her life to the abolition of nuclear weapons.
