chance of Dick Stegewerns' Yoshida retrospective travelling anywhere

it.</FONT></DIV>

entertainment, the wire services are reporting that the actress and singer
Tanaka Yoshiko has passed away at the age of 55 of breast cancer. Tanaka, known
to fans first as Su-chan, first came to fame as a member of the Candies, one of
the big idol groups in the 1970s. After they broke up, she became an actress and
appeared in many famous films such as Imamura's Black Rain (for which she won
several acting awards), Poppoya, Yoshida's Women in the Mirror, etc. She also
appeared a lot on TV. Ironically, her husband was the older brother of Natsume
Masako, the idol star who tragically died of leukemia at a young age. Su-chan
was too young as well.<BR>>><BR>>> Aaron Gerow<BR>>> Associate
