About Joan Hisaoka
Joan Hisaoka, founder and president of Hisaoka Public Relations, was 48 when she lost her battle with cancer on May 14, 2008. Her company, founded in 1988, represented many top metro-area hospitality, tourism and retail clients. Her strength of mind and spirit and selfless attitude were characteristic of her life. Joan will be forever remembered for her unending commitment and passion to help make the world a better place for others.

The Joan Hisaoka Healing Arts Gallery at Smith Farm Center
The Healing Arts Gallery at Smith Farm Center has been named in memory of Joan because of her dedication to our shared mission to transform the experience of cancer and other serious illnesses by empowering individuals to make wise decisions about their care and improving the quality of their lives during such challenging times.
