Richard Kobayashi - Prize Cabbage, Manzanar Relocation Camp
Richard Kobayashi, farmer at Manzanar Relocation Center, California. He was a farmer at the camp.
I found this interesting: Most of the prisoners at Manzanar received a stipend for working there. Unskilled workers earned $8 per month ($107.8 per month as of 2011), semi-skilled workers earned $12 per month ($162 per month as of 2011), skilled workers made $16 per month ($216 per month as of 2011), and professionals earned $19 per month ($256 per month as of 2011). In addition, all prisoners received $3.60 per month ($49 per month as of 2011) as a clothing allowance.
