Noriko Horiuchi

Okay, so she's a politician, which I usually file under "respect but keep my distance," yet something about Noriko Horiuchi softens me. Maybe it's that she's from Fuefuki in Yamanashi, peach-and-grape country, the kind of place where you grow up close to the seasons and the soil, and I imagine that leaves you with a certain quiet sturdiness. Gakushuin grad, born in '65, a Scorpio of the generation that's seen plenty of weather come and go. I picture her as the type who'd rather build trust slowly than chase a headline, more steady hands than fireworks. I don't know her like I'd know an actor or a singer, but the vibe I get is grounded, patient, a little stubborn in the good way. That's the kind of person I tend to root for.

Noriko Horiuchi is a Japanese politician born on October 28, 1965, in Fuefuki, Yamanashi Prefecture. She is a graduate of Gakushuin University. She has been active in Japanese politics and represents the Yamanashi region.
