Perhaps the first Asian actress to appear in American cinema, lovers of silent cinema have forgotten the name Tsuru Aoki, whereas her husband, Sessue Hayakawa, remains a legend. Aoki’s film career in fact preceded her husband’s rise to fame in Cecil B. DeMille’s The Cheat (1915).
Aoki immigrated to the United States in 1903 with her aunt and uncle, Sado Yacco and Otto Kawakimi, who were owners of the Imperial Theatre of Japan. She was later adopted by another uncle, Hyosai Aoki, a wealthy artist who lived in San Francisco.
