Former Japanese Princess Mako Komuro now working at the Met: reports
Former Japanese Princess Mako has a new gig as a volunteer at the
Metropolitan Museum of Art, according to reports.
Mako Komuro, who fled Japan and moved to New York after marrying her
commoner husband in October, is assisting curators as a volunteer in the
Met's Asian art collection inspired by the life of a 13th-century monk
who introduced Buddhism to the island nation, according to the Japan
Times.
Mako has the chops for the job, as the former princess who turned down a
$1.23 million payout to marry college sweetheart Kei Komuro graduated with
a degree in art and cultural heritage from International Christian
University in Tokyo.
She's also studied abroad in the UK, including at the University of
Edinburgh, where she focused on art history, and the University of
Leicester, where she got her master's in art museum and gallery studies,
the Japan Times reported.
