Lady Hiro Saga of Japan (1914-1987)
I would love to do a long post on the Imperial family, but I am having some trouble finding nice vintage photos as well as good stories. The Japanese Imperial family, unlike most other royals, keep very much to themselves. They actually had a huge scandal last year when photos of one of their princesses were leaked. They're lives are very private, and they tend to lead sheltered lives and they aren't photographed much. Most of the photos I've found are of the current Emperor and Empress. The photo here is Lady Hiro Saga, a relative of the Imperial family who was at one time captured by Chinese communist forces. She got out eventually, though.

she was married to the younger brother of the last Emperor of China as well.
