A great person who deserves all respect. As an actress I've never heard of her, although I'm familiar with the Golden Age of the Japanese film industry, the 1950's.

With help of IMDB I found that she was involved in 11 movies as an actress and 4 as a director.

One stands out because of the cast: Tokyo No Kyujitsu [1958] with Shirley Yamaguchi in the lead role as a fashion designer along with heavyweights as Yoko Tsukasa, Michiyo Aratama, Toshiro Mifune, Nobuko Otawa and last but not least Setsuko Hara.

Miyagi plays a singer. Not rated so probably hard to get a copy.
