Hiroko Sato (佐藤寛子) (born February 17, 1985) is a Japanese actress, singer and Japanese idol. She was born in Fukushima but grew up in the Kanagawa prefecture and attended the Kanagawa Prefectural Senior High School, I Shida. She was a student council president at her high school. ==Biography== Hiroko Sato has a sound sports and fitness background, both in playing volleyball and swimming and regularly works at her physical fitness with a gruelling regime of situps, something she has occasionally admitted to having overdone but she has also developed a good technique in the Japanese martial art of sword-fighting kendo which has been useful for her in action roles in television and movies. With her personal hobbies and interests she has studied traditional japanese calligraphy to 6 stages as well as enjoying painting as an artistic medium but she also writes poetry and is a budding novelist, something that is useful in the revue and analysis she writes for NHK Radio on a regular basis. On a more casual basis she enjoys music, movies and good food, much of which she cooks herself with just a little help from recipe books by Naomi Takayama. She is known to like a little wine with her food on an occasional basis and has confessed to liking an occasional draught beer. She is an avid reader with a taste for heavyweight Japanese women authors of the calibre of Hiromi Kawakami, Banana Yoshimoto, Eimi Yamada, Fuyumi Ono and other similar authors who address diverse matters like unpopular social issues, human sexuality, inter-racial marriages and the issues facing young people in modern Japan. While she enjoys deep and at times complicated authors, she is known among her peers as a very down to earth person who gets on well with her family and friends and within the boundaries of her work schedule enjoys socialising with her colleagues after work. Hiroko Sato has recently restarted her personal blog under the new name "Orange" replacing the earlier version "OOKAMI" which was named after her Japanese zoomancy. With a gap of about 1 year the blog has her personal musings and a number of non-professional photos that show day to day aspects of her life over the last few years and a number of photos of her little dog "Pochi" and the cat that she used to use in her earlier blog logo whose name is "Pierce". By its Japanese notation it is a western name rather than an action. The photos of her with her pets show she is a kind and affectionate person who has an affinity with animals. In 2002 Hiroko Sato made her acting debut in the low budget horror movie "Scare" and began a very successful career as a gravure idol. A substantial amount of her work was published in Japanese men's magazines like Sabra (magazine), Wannibooks, Up to Boy and Weekly Playboy by Shuestra as well as other media forms like BOMB.TV, image.tv and Young Sunday Web among others. Starting with the DVD "First Touch" in late 2002 she also starred in a reasonable number of Idol movies in DVD format up until 2008 when she retired from gravure swimsuit modelling. As an actress, Hiroko Sato has worked in a wide range of television productions in Japan, various roles in stage productions and a variety of movies genres including horror films. She is well known for her performance in Madan Senki Ryukendo as Kaori Nose. In 2004 she played a role in the low budget movie Cursed (2004 film). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hiroko Sato」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
