Henk Rogers, a Dutch businessman who wants to purchase the handheld rights to 'Tetris,' a Russian game created by Alexey Pajitnov, is the subject of a biographical film about him. Akemi is Henk's wife, and she is his current residence.
Akemi Rogers, who is she?
Henk and Akemi met for the first time while studying at the University of Hawaii at Mnoa, where she studied English. Akemi returned to Japan, his native country, and after three extended visits, he decided not to return to the United States. Henk and Akemi married in 1977 and lived in a modest house owned by his stepfather.
Henk's work took him away from his family for extended periods, thus Akemi took care of their children in large part. Henk then founded Bullet-Proof Software, Inc., the software company that later launched "Game Boy" with 'Tetris," according to Dan Ackerman.
Although Jon S. Baird's 'Tetris' depicts the bond between Henk and Akemi, there are several fictional moments that are integrated into the film's narrative.
What Has Happened to Akemi Rogers?
Henk and his daughter Maya Rogers continued to expand The Tetris Company, but Akemi Rogers remained a solitary observer. Her daughter became the CEO of The Tetris Company and Blue Planet Software in 2014 as a proud mother.
Henk and Akemi Rogers Foundation was established in 2002 to serve their community. Akemi spends a significant part of her time with her family, including her children, their partners, and her grandchildren.
