Seven haunting portraits of WWII refugees motivated Akira Kitade to identify the individuals portrayed. Were they among the thousands rescued by Chiune Sugihara's life-saving Japanese transit visas? In this account of his investigation, Kitade uncovers more saviors, including the Dutch diplomat Jan Zwartendijk, and provides new insights about Sugihara visas.
