Biography
Yoshihiko ("Henry") Kasai was born September 25, 1890 at Kawaguchi-mura, Minamitsuru-gun, Tamanashi-ken, Japan to Kisaku Kasai
(father ) and Mura Kasai (mother).
In May 1904, Mr. Kasai left Japan in order to attend school in the United States. He arrived in San Francisco on June 8, 1904
aboard the "Kaptic-Maru." He began his elementary school education in Mountain View, California, but joined his father and
uncle in September 1906 in Idaho, where they were engaged in farming sugar beets. He attended Idaho Falls High School and
graduated in 1913.
In 1915, Mr. Kasai became a life insurance agent for the New York Life Insurance Company covering the states of Idaho and
Utah and worked on providing insurance for the local Japanese communities. By 1916 Mr. Kasai was a successful agent living
in Utah and was becoming integrally involved in the Salt Lake City community.
In 1937 Mr. Kasai married his wife, Alice, with whom he had six children. Mrs. Kasai was born in Seattle, Washington, but
re-entered the United States in 1922 as a Kibei (Japanese Americans born in the U.S. who returned to America after being educated
in Japan) from Saga Ken Miyake-Gun, Minobara-Mura.
During World War II, Mr. Kasai was interned for two years, first in Missoula, Montana, then in Fort Sill, Oklahoma, next in
Camp Livingston, Louisiana, and, finally, in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
By 1945 he had returned to Salt Lake City, Utah and had resumed his leadership role in community activities, particularly
as an emissary between the American and Japanese cultures. In 1954, Mr. Kasai became an American citizen.
