Both women were Iowa natives, who met after joining the English faculty at Iowa State University in 1969–70. Both had been high school teachers—Irwin for thirty years, from 1937–67—and drew on the many students they had come to know in plotting the novels. Most of their book dealt with teenage social problems, ranging from divorce, suicide, drug/alcohol issues, and even incest/sexual abuse. Besides\n <i>\n Kim/Kimi\n </i>\n , three of their other novels dealt with centrally with race/ethnicity:\n <i>\n We Are Mesquakie, We Are One\n </i>\n (1980), a coming of age novel set against the backdrop of the 1840s forced migration of the Mesquakie people to a Kansas reservation;\n <i>\n I Be Somebody\n </i>\n (1984), about an African America boy whose family migrates from Oklahoma to homestead in Canada in the early 1900s; and\n <i>\n Sarah with an H\n </i>\n , on a Jewish girl dealing with anti-Semitism in her new school.\n <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref1_1-0\">\n <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref1-1\">\n [1]\n </a>\n </sup>\n </p>\n <div id=\"authorByline\">\n <b>\n Authored by\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"https://encyclopedia.densho.org/wiki/Jan_Kamiya\" title=\"Jan Kamiya\">\n Jan Kamiya\n </a>\n </b>\n </div>\n <div id=\"citationAuthor\" style=\"display:none;\">\n Kamiya, Jan\n </div>\n</div>\n",
