About Sayo Masuda
Autobiography of a Geisha (芸者、苦闘の半生涯, Geisha, kutō no hanshōgai, "Geisha, Half a Lifetime of Pain and Struggle") is a book by Sayo Masuda (増田 小夜, Masuda Sayo). It was first published in Japan in 1957, and the English translation by G. G. Rowley was published in 2003. Masuda wrote her autobiography between the years of 1956 and 1957 in response to a magazine ad for a non-fiction women's writing competition. Having never learned to read kanji, Masuda wrote the entire book in hiragana, with her editors carefully working to convert her writing into standard kanji while preserving the feeling of her original writing.
