Biography

Tomoko Naraoka (奈良岡朋子, born December 1, 1929) is a Japanese actress and narrator. She was born in Komagome, Hongō (now part of Bunkyo), Tokyo, Japan, as the daughter of a painter. Naraoka graduated from Joshibi University of Art and Design.

She made her film debut in 1949 with Chijin no Ai, adapted from the novel Naomi. In 1981, she appeared in Rengō Kantai (Combined Fleet, known in the U.S. as The Imperial Navy). Naraoka also featured in Torajirō Sarada Kinenbi (1988), part of the long-running Otoko wa Tsurai yo series, and appeared in eight films from the Tsuribaka Nisshi series. She has been involved in numerous NHK Taiga dramas, beginning with Ten to Chi to (1969), where she played Uesugi Sadazane's wife. In Haru no Sakamichi (1971), she portrayed Kita no Mandokoro, Toyotomi Hideyoshi's wife. She returned to Taiga dramas in 1976 with Kaze to Kumo to Niji to. Naraoka narrated the films Inochi (1986) and Kasuga no Tsubone (1989), as well as the 2008 drama Atsuhime. Notable narration roles include the 1983 serialized morning drama Oshin, Onna wa Dokyō (1992), and Haru Yo Koi (1994–1995). She also provided narration for the nonfiction series Kiwameru: Nihon no Bi to Kokoro.
