Sojin Kamiyama, one of the key figures in the creation of the modern Japanese theater, was a friend of Junichiro Tanizaki throughout his lifetime. He is known as one of the few Japanese actors who performed in Hollywood in silent films in the 1920s. However, his life has not been sufficiently studied; nor his friendship with Junichiro Tanizaki fully investigated. This paper presents his personal history based on various data, information and interviews with members of his family.
