Reiko Kataoka

[Tom Mes]

Can anyone give an update on actress Reiko Kataoka? Last year a friend told 
me she was suffering from cancer. She hasn't been very active as an actress 
of late, Naoki Ichio's A DROWNING MAN (OBORERU HITO) is her only listed 
screen credit for 2002 according to the JMBD, and that one was made a year 
earlier.

Does anyone know how Ms. Kataoka's is doing? I don't know if her sitaution 
has been widely reported in the Japanese press, she's not exactly the 
starlet type whose face is on every cover.

I'd appreciate it if anyone could share some information.

Tom
