She will show the development of Pizza in Japan, primarily in Tokyo, in four time periods (1950s-1960s, 1970s-1980s, 1990s - 200s, and today) For every period, she will outline the stories of key actors involved in the making of Italian cuisine and pizza into Japanese favorites.
Dr. Ceccarini has a background in sociology and has recently completed the PhD Program in Global Studies at Sophia University in Tokyo. She is currently working on a book based on her PhD dissertation, describing the spread of pizza in Japan and the two-way flow of pizza chefs moving between Italy and Japan.
