Iva Toguri was born on the Fourth of July in Los Angeles and dreamed of becoming a doctor. But a trip to visit a sick aunt in 1941 turned into a nightmare when Pearl Harbor trapped her in Japan.

Refusing to renounce her American citizenship despite starvation and threats, she was forced behind a Radio Tokyo microphone during World War II.

On August 6, 1945, a single decoded transmission from Hiroshima shattered everything she believed about the war—and sealed her fate as the woman America would hunt as "Tokyo Rose."

This is the story of an innocent American caught between two nations at war, and how a legend destroyed a life. Discover the truth behind one of history's greatest injustices.
