BIOGRAPHY

Fujie Tanikawa was born in Japan on 4 March 1908. At some point, she had children.

It was reported that she wasn’t picky when it came to food, and she had never experienced serious illness. When asked about the secret of her longevity, she replied, “Happily chatting with family and friends.”
