Lee A. Tonouchi is a Hawaii-born writer and editor, who calls himself "Da Pidgin Guerilla" because of his strong advocacy of the Hawaiian Pidgin language. Tonouchi graduated from Aiea High School in 1990.
He promotes the idea that Hawaiian Pidgin is an appropriate language for both creative and academic writing.
He was inspired by the works of Eric Chock in the journal Bamboo Ridge.
All of his writing, including his Master's Thesis, is in Pidgin. He was an instructor of English at Kapiolani Comm
