Anthony J. Bryant (February 14, 1961 – December 25, 2013) was an American author and editor. He worked in Japan for a period of time, and became an authority on medieval Japanese armor and samurai culture.
Early life
[ edit ]
Bryant was born in Franklin, Indiana , and was adopted at age 5 by Robert M. and Margaret Bryant.[1] Following the death of his father when Bryant was 6, he and his mother moved to Miami Shores, Florida , where he spent his youth and attended Pinecrest Preparatory School.[1] After graduating from Florida State University in 1983 with a bachelor's degree in Japanese studies , he completed his graduate studies in Japanese studies (history , language , and armor ) at Takushoku University in Tokyo , graduating in 1986. Bryant lived in Japan from 1986 to 1992.[1] He also earned an M.A. in Japanese from Indiana University Bloomington in 2003.[2]
Career
[ edit ]
While living in Japan, Bryant worked as a features editor for the Mainichi Daily News , and as editor for the Tokyo Journal , an English language monthly magazine.[1] He was considered a historian of Japan specializing in Kamakura , Muromachi , and Momoyama period warrior culture.[1]
After returning from Japan in 1995, he became the editor of Dragon , the flagship publication of TSR , the creators of the fantasy role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons , for eight issues.[1]
For several years, Bryant made presentations and appeared on panels at several conventions, including the 52nd World Science Fiction Convention in Winnipeg in 1994,[3] and the 54th World Science Fiction Convention in Anaheim in 1996.[4]
As an authority on Japanese armor , Bryant became widely involved in the Society for Creative Anachronism .[5] He provided a foreword for The Watanabe Art Museum Samurai Armour Collection Volume 1: Kabuto & Mengu .[6]
Bryant wrote four books for Osprey Publishing on samurai history , and co-authored, with Mark T. Arsenault, the core rulebook for the role-playing game Sengoku: Chanbara Roleplaying in Feudal Japan .[1]
Reception
[ edit ]
In his book The Shogun's Soldiers , Michael von Essen highly recommended Bryant's Samurai 1550–1600 as an "easily accessible book on samurai and ashigaru at the time of [Japanese] civil wars."[7]
In Anime Sacramento , Laurine White responded to an article about Japanimation by Bryant that had been published in EYE-AI magazine, saying, "Some of what [Bryant] has to say is suspect, like 'Few who see Dr. Slump fail to love it.' If that were true, subtitled Dr. Slump should be in great demand. Sure it is!"[8]
Death
[ edit ]
Bryant died on December 25, 2013, at St. Francis Health in Indianapolis .[1]
