| Tsuru Aoki was born in far-away Japan, Tokio, to be exact, and received
her education both in her native country and in a convent in the United
States. Her stage career began when the diminutive Nippourse was but eight
years old under the direction of an aunt and uncle. Her screen career consists
of photoplays made for most of the larger companies. Some of the pictures
she has been seen in by the motion picture public are "The Tokio Siren,"
"Locked Lips," "The Breath of the Gods," "Birthright,"
"The Curse of Iku" and many others in which she has literally
brought a breath of Japan to America. Miss Aoki is five feet one inch high,
weighs a hundred and twenty pounds and has jet black hair and eyes. |
