Katsumoto Saotome (March 26, 1932 – May 10, 2022) was a Japanese writer and children's book author. His non-fiction work included a six volume series covering the experiences of people who survived the March 1945 firebombing of Tokyo. He also founded the Center of the Tokyo Raids and War Damage after the Tokyo city government declined to fund a museum dedicated to the bombing of the city in World War II.[1][2][3][4]
