Beate’s work on the Constitution was so socially progressive that she was subjected to a yearlong investigation, suspected of being a Communist.
She returned to the USA, becoming a mentor to Yoko Ono, a leader of the Japan Society, and a prolific producer of musical and artistic shows. Multiple Japanese films, documentaries, and biographies have been produced based on her life.
