Actress
44 years (Oct 15, 1982)Inzai, Chiba Prefecture, Japan
Fame aside, Yoko Maki is above all a career actress who has been at it long enough for audiences to grow up watching her. The first credits arrived long before the title most people know. Drama accounts for the largest share of the work. 65 credits across 25 years is a rate most careers never reach. 'The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift' is the title most people reach for first, with Woman at Boswell's Apt. at the center of it. She also turns up in 'The Grudge'.
