Lecture and Q&A Session with His Excellency Shigeo Yamada '89, Japan's Ambassador to the United States
Ambassador Shigeo Yamada assumed his post as Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Japan to the United States of America in December 2023. Prior to assuming his current post, Ambassador Yamada served as Senior Deputy Minister for Foreign Affairs.
The Ambassador’s broad diplomatic assignments have led him to the realization, “The Japan-U.S. alliance is no longer just a bilateral relationship, but a global partnership.” It is this conviction that informs his perspective as Japan’s Ambassador to the United States.
Ambassador Yamada earned a BA in law from Keio University in 1987 and a BA in political science from Carleton College in Minnesota in 1989.
