Celeste Heiter
With her lifelong love of Japan, its people, and its culture,
Celeste Heiter believes that she may have been Japanese in a
previous incarnation. In this lifetime, however, Celeste was born
in Mobile, Alabama, where she earned a bachelor's degree in Art and
English from the University of South Alabama. Inspired by a
lifelong dream to visit the Great Buddha at Kamakura, she moved to
Tokyo in 1988, where she spent two years teaching English
conversation. Celeste now makes her home in California's beautiful
Napa Valley, with the most treasured souvenir of her life in Japan:
her son Will, who was born during her stay in Tokyo. She is the
author of Vignettes of Japan, Ganbatte Means Go For It, Five Seven
Five, and To Japan With Love. She writes about her adventures in
Asian food and film on her blog, Chopstick Cinema.
