"In Japan the women's issue is really a men's issue," says Sachiko Nakajima, a deputy director at the National Personnel Authority, which oversees public employees. Kanagawa prefecture, southwest of Tokyo, shares her view.

When Shirley made Around the World, she got to Japan herself; when she took time out to have a baby, she named her Stephanie Sachiko, to demonstrate that she shared Steve's love for the Orient. The baby slowed her down not a bit. She made Hot Spell, a good picture but not much of a box-office splash, showed up on the Sheepman set "somewhat trepidatious" for her first western.
