Sumiko Iwao (January 2, 1935 – January 11, 2018) was a Japanese psychologist, educator, editor and professor emeritus at Keio University in Tokyo. She served as the editor-in-chief of Japan Echo, an English-language magazine and predecessor of Nippon.com, from 1997 until 2007, as well as a member of the Echo's editorial board from 1985 until 2007.[1]

Iwao was born on January 2, 1935. She graduated from Keio University in Tokyo and then obtained her doctorate in psychology from Yale University in the U.S. state of Connecticut.[1] She served as a professor at Keio University and Musashi Institute of Technology (present-day Tokyo City University), as well as a visiting professor at Harvard University in the United States.[1]

She chaired the national Council on Gender Equality and served on the National Public Safety Commission of Japan, in addition to other government and public service posts.[1] In addition to her work as a profession and social psychologist, Iwao authored numerous books and papers focusing on women in Japan, foreigners in Japan (often called Gaijin), and the Japanese media.[1] Her best known works included "The Japanese Woman: Traditional Image and Changing Reality", which was published in 1992.[1][2]

Iwao retired from Keio University in 2005 and stepped down as editor-in-chief of Japan Echo in 2007.[1] However, she remained active in children's education, especially for girls.
