Hisako Nakamura

Hisako Nakamura (Japanese: 中村久子, 1897–1968) was a Japanese author, artist, and performer. Due to a childhood infection caused by frostbite, Nakamura lost both her hands and feet by the age of three. As an adult, she was featured in sideshow exhibitions showing her distinct needlework and knitting abilities. In later years, Nakamura became an accomplished and acknowledged calligraphist, doll-maker, and author, as well as a leading figure in Shin Buddhism. Provided by Wikipedia
