A line can go anywhere : the brilliant, resilient life of artist Ruth Asawa / written by Caroline McAlister ; illustrated by Jamie Green.
"Growing up on a dusty farm in central California, Aiko Ruth Asawa lived between two worlds. She was Aiko to some and Ruth to others, an invisible line she balanced on every day. But when Japan bombed Pearl Harbor, thrusting the world into war, suddenly she was Aiko, no matter how much her family tried to cut the lines connecting them to Japan. Like many other Japanese Americans, they were taken to a prison camp. The same barbed wire that now separated Ruth from her old home would inspire her art for decades as she grew to become one of the most famous sculptors of the 20th century" -- provided by publisher.
