Full title:Mrs. Mary Kito, a Nisei from Granada, works in Los Angeles as office manager of Now magazine, a publication of racial equality. Seated is city editor Malcolm Thurburn. Between them is Nob Sawamura, managing editor of the Manzanar Free Press, who is in Los Angeles on a visit. Now magazine has just published in serial form The Story of the Nittas about the first Nisei family to return to Santa Ana. Mary Kito left Granada two years ago, going to Rockford, Illinois, where she worked in a direct mail shop. My job in Los Angeles with 'Now' is very interesting, she says. And I have certainly never had any unpleasant incidents either here or in Rockford. Rockford is a good town for Nisei where they have some of the best jobs obtainable. Photographer: Mace, Charles E. Los Angeles, California.
