Ep 16: An interview with Diane Krey-Wesley, aka Mary from the 1970's 'Ken & Mary' Nissan Skyline Campaign

As an American teenager exploring Japan in the 1970's, Diane Krey-Wesley found her way as the actress in the successful marketing campaign that promoted Nissan's popular 4th generation 'Kenmeri' Nissan Skyline. We speak with Diane as she shares why she considers Japan her home, her experiences while filming commercials, her co-star (Jimmy Zinnai), and the fame that followed. We also talk about her life as a school teacher in California, the power of the internet, her student's reaction when they discover her past as well as the world's obsession with 'Mary' today. Diane is now retired and looks forward to continued involvement in the Nissan community as well as as many trips back to Japan as possible.
