Life and career
Michio Yamauchi was born in a mountain village in Nishimikawa, Aichi (currently part of Toyota City) on October 23, 1950. He studied in the literature department at Waseda University, and after graduating, at 29 years old, entered night school at the Tokyo School of Photography (now Tokyo Visual Arts school (専門学校東京ビジュアルアーツ).
In 1982, the same year he graduated from the Tokyo School of Photography, Yamauchi took part in an independent gallery known as Image Shop CAMP (イメージショップ CAMP). During this time, Yamauchi studied under Daidō Moriyama (森山大道). Afterwards, Yamauchi spent over 10 years as a freelance photographer, mainly participating in independent galleries where he would display photos he took around Tokyo. Yamauchi eventually focused on publishing books of his photography after publishing "To People" (人へ, hito e) and "City" (街, machi). From this point on, Yamauchi, whilst continuing photography in Tokyo, began heading overseas as well.
Awards
In 1997, Yamauchi won the 22nd Ina Nobuo Award for his exhibition "British Territory Hong Kong" (英領HONGKONG, eiryō hongkong) at the Ginza Nikon Salon in Tokyo, *an. Then, in 2011, he received the 20th Hayashi Tadahiko Award for his exhibition and photo album *led "Keelung" (基隆, kiirun). This award (林忠彦賞) is given annually by Shunan city and the Shunan City Museum of Art and History, started in 1992, in honor of the photographer Tadahiko Hayashi.
