Biography

Osawa was born in Hokkaidō, Japan.[citation needed] Her career began as a singer after she won the Grand Prix at the 7th HoriPro Talent Scout Caravan,[1] a contest that searches for the next big talent in Japan.[2] She released her first single "Jēmuzu Dīn mitai na onna no ko" (ジェームス・ディーンみたいな女の子, "A Girl like James Dean") in 1983. In the same year, her father died. Her mother was also in poor health and became her mother's primary caretaker until her death.[1] Her novel Okāsan, gomenne (お母さん、ごめんね, Mom, I'm Sorry) details her experiences with her mother and Japan's healthcare system.
