About The Author
Tetsuyo Ishii
Tetsuyo Ishii was born in 1920 in Jogecho, Hiroshima. She worked as an elementary school teacher from age 20 to 56, before working full-time on her family’s allotment. Locals still affectionately call her “Teacher.” She was featured in the Chugoku Shimbun and on TV, where her vitality and personality rocketed her to national fame.
In January 2023 she released her first book Happy On Her Own at 102, which went on to sell over 180,000 copies in Japan. Her follow-up, 103 Years Old and Full of Quotable Wisdom (Just Kidding!), was published in March 2024.
