Iva Toguri mug shot, Sugamo Prison--March 7, 1946.

Tokyo Rose (alternate spelling Tokio Rose) was a generic name given by Allied forces in the South Pacific during World War II to any of approximately a dozen English -speaking female broadcasters of Japanese propaganda The name is most strongly associated with Iva Toguri D'Aquino , who broadcast under the pseudonym "Orphan Ann" during the 15-20 minute DJ segment of the 75-minute program on Radio Tokyo (NHK). Other women who, separately or together, may have warranted the title include American Ruth Hayakawa (who substituted for Iva on weekends) and Canadian June Suyama ("The Nightingale of Nanking"), who also broadcast on Radio Tokyo, and Myrtle Lipton ("Little Margie"), who broadcast from Japan-controlled Radio Manila.
