Closer to home, NYSD featured an article about Shintaro Okamoto and his father Takeo Okamoto, "who are the owners of Okamoto Studio, an ice sculpting enterprise based in Long Island City. Shintaro was born in Japan and raised in Alaska, then moved to New York where his father opened the business while he finished his education(BA from Brown University and an MFA from Hunter College). He is a very serious minded person and as the marketing end behind his family business he has carried it far and wide: a guest appearance on Food Network’s Iron Chef, the Princess of Qatar’s wedding and dozens of posh Bar Mitzvahs."
