original description

This story about Masumi Hayashi first aired March 25, 2004, on "Outlook." It was rebroadcast Dec. 21, 2006, shortly after Congress approved $38 million to presevere WW II internment camps. Our crew enjoyed meeting her, and learning about the history of the camps. So it was with sadness when we recently learned she was the victim of a senseless crime. In August, Hayashi was shot to death in her Cleveland apartment. As a tribute, we thought it would be worthwhile to take a second look at the work of Masumi Hayashi.
