Bungo Yoshida was a Japanese puppeteer born on May 3, 1934, in Moriguchi, Osaka. Originally named Teruo Takahashi, he was initiated into bunraku theater in 1951 and for twenty years performed female roles. In the 1970s, he transitioned to male roles. Concerned about declining audiences, he integrated rock music into traditional bunraku, notably in a 1980 adaptation of The Love Suicides at Sonezaki. He was married to American writer Edith Hanson and passed away from liver cancer on January 16, 2008, in Osaka.
