Michiko Fujiwara (藤原 道子, Fujiwara Michiko; 26 May 1900 – 26 April 1983[1]) was a Japanese nurse and politician. She initially campaigned for her husband, the politician Kenji Yamazaki, but when he returned from the war with a new wife and child she ran against him.[citation needed] She defeated him as a candidate from the Socialist Party of Japan.[2] She would become concerned with fighting child prostitution.[3]
