He was a banker, and her mother was a pianist. She saw World War II and was forced to watch the horrible incidents all through her eyes, which eventually impacted the rest of her life. Her family begged for food, and her mother took all the responsibilities because her father was in a concentration camp at that time.
She went to Gakushuin University and left after two semesters for unknown reasons. After the war ended, she moved to the US and enrolled herself again at a nearby college. During her college days, she liked meeting artists and influential people from the music background, which her parents disapproved of. They did not even want her lifestyle.
She escaped from her college again, but this time to be with her love, Toshi Ichiyanagi. She filed for divorce in 1962 and was diagnosed with clinical depression after that. After recovering from the recession, she married a musician, Anthony Cox, which ended in 1969.
