Simply listing her accomplishments does not do justice to the magnitude of her contributions to the community and to the world. Ruth was a highly professional person. She was an author, editor, scholar, artist, religious leader and social activist. As an author, Ruth wrote novels such as Pulaski Place in 1950, which described so well the life of Polish-Americans in Buffalo, N.Y. that a Polish-American organization bought the movie rights. Another significant work was The Voices of Others, which was an alternate selection of the Book of the Month Club in 1959. Most recently her historical novels - The Monk Who Dared , about Shinran, the founder of the Hongwanji tradition, and The Monks Wife about Eshin-ni have been read widely and bring the ancient figures to life in our modern world.

Collaboration took the form of creating products in work groups; review and comment of draft documents; creation of local One-Stop coalitions; workshops; and membership on Private Industry Councils (PICs), Local Workforce Investment Boards (LWIBs), youth councils, and the State Workforce Development Council (WDC). Chapter 1 describes the breadth of the representation provided by the WDC and the LWIBs. Before the LWIBs were appointed, the WDC consulted the seasoned PICs. Governor Benjamin J.

Both as the Governor's designee and as a WDC member, Director Akiba has been regularly consulted during the plan development process. Sept. 1998
