Lady Fry, wife of British Ambassador Sir Graham Fry, is director of the Art of Dining Exhibition on March 7. All proceeds from this event go to Refugees International Japan, a volunteer organization with world-wide relief projects.
Lady Fry at the British Embassy, Japan, occupies a unique position. She is the first Japanese lady to serve here as wife of the British ambassador. "At first I felt nervous," she said. "Now I feel at home."
The youngest of three sisters, all born in Tokyo, she attended the Sacred Heart School and University. Undoubtedly, she was discreetly schooled in her native culture and elegance. Undoubtedly also, when she graduated with her degree in modern Japanese literature, she was very well grounded in modern English conversation. Before long she had gone to live in New York and Chicago, where her ability in English sharpened.
