Author detail
American Mishima Author Louis Edward Rosas is the son of Mexican Immigrants whose father served in the U.S. Army in Vietnam. In his youth he grew up on war films and military aviation in the seaside plains of Oxnard California where he watched vintage warplanes fly as they filmed various WWII dramas by the Oxnard Airport. But it was Akira Kurosawa's Samurai epic Ran that changed his views on war while creating a lasting impression of Japanese culture. Inspired by Yukio Mishima, Louis would go on to study Japanese history, language and swordsmanship before creating the first of many works.
