__NOTOC__{{Nihongo|Taku Aramasa[1]|新正 卓|Aramasa Taku|born 15 August 1936}} is a Japanese photographer. Born in Tokyo, Aramasa moved with his family to Manchukuo in 1940. In 1948 he moved to Sakata, Yamagata. He graduated from {{Nihongo|Musashino Art School|武蔵野美術学校|Musashino Bijutsu Gakkō}} (now Musashino Art University) in 1960, and set up a design company in which he was an art director, but became a freelance in 1970. He worked as a fashion photographer in Paris from 1973 to 1976. In 1980 he met his parents, from whom he had been separated, and started work on a photographic contribution to the effort of reuniting Japanese war orphans and their biological parents. This work branched into the photography of people of Japanese descent in Hawai'i and South America.[2] A Portrait of Japanese Immigrants to South America won the Domon Ken Award in 1986; Aramasa subsequently won various other awards.[2]Aramasa has taught at Musashino Art University from 1993.[2] Exhibitions{{BLP unsourced section|date=August 2008}}- "A Portrait of Japanese Immigrants to South America,” Yurakucho Marion, Tokyo, 1986
