Talking to Jim and Gerri was a lovely stroll down memory lane; it's almost like we hold each other's histories in the ex-pat community as our children grew up together. After years apart, our paths would cross, but it always felt natural and like "good old times" with Jim and Gerri. Gerri was born and raised in Tokyo. She shares her family history and how she grew up in a single-parent family. Jim was born in Japan, but he moved around in the US because his father was in the US military. They met at Sophia University and have been together for nearly half a century. Jim and Gerri are both fully bicultural and bilingual - a combination that is a rare commodity and an asset in their industry. Jim has established himself in the video/film industry and currently runs his production along with Gerri. Gerri is a renowned bilingual voiceover talent for TV, movies, and commercials; her NHK show "Eigo de Asobou" became a national phenomenon and a pioneer in English-incorporated educational television shows. The dynamic couple share milestones and continue to create valuable content through the media medium's evolution (e.g., apps like Hungry Caterpillar).
