Details for parents' names ... from a page dedicated to a biography/documentary:

"The son of George Suzuki, a tailor, and Haruko Shiozawaa Suzuki, a dressmaker"

(Father's "American" name - may help in identifying additional records)

1940 record (census), linked in sources, identifies head of household as Hiroko, with profession "dressmaker" ... it is indexed as male, but the record appears to be female, and corroborates data about profession above. This record may also indicate she is widowed at this point, but the note above the W is unclear to me.
