About Takako Irie
Takako Irie was a Japanese film actress. Born in Tokyo into the aristocratic Higashibōjō family, she graduated from Bunka Gakuin before debuting as an actress at Nikkatsu in 1927. She became a major star, even starting her own production company, Irie Productions, in 1932. One of Kenji Mizoguchi's silent film masterpieces, The Water Magician, was produced at that company with Irie starring. She appeared in many advertisements, as well as on fans and other commercial goods. Irie was also the subject of a folding screen painting by Nihonga artist Nakamura Daizaburō, which appeared in the 1930 Teiten, and which is today in the collection of the Honolulu Museum of Art; toy dolls were also produced based on this image.
