Overview

This highly entertaining business memoir describes what it was like to work for Japanā€™s premiere animation studio, StudioĀ Ghibli, and its reigning genius Hayao Miyazaki. Steve Alpert, a Japanese-speaking American, was the ā€œresident foreignerā€ in theĀ offices of Ghibli and its parent Tokuma Shoten and played a central role when Miyazakiā€™s films were starting to take off inĀ international markets. Alpert describes hauling heavy film canisters ofĀ Princess MononokeĀ to Russia and California, experiencingĀ a screaming Harvey Weinstein, dealing with Disney marketers, and then triumphantly attending glittering galas celebrating theĀ Oscar-winningĀ Spirited Away.Ā 

His one-of-a-kind portraits of Miyazaki and long-time producer Toshio Suzuki, and of sly, gruff, and brilliant businessmanĀ Yasuyoshi Tokuma, capture the hard work and artistry that have made Ghibli films synonymous with cinematic excellence. AndĀ as the loneĀ gaijinĀ in a demanding company run by some of the most famous and influential people in modern Japan, SteveĀ Alpert tackles his own challenges of language and culture. No one else could have written this book.
