Ken Indo Harada was born in 1881 in the town of Kariya-shi, in the Aichi Prefecture of Japan. She came from a family of samurai. At age 15, she met schoolteacher Jukichi Harada. Within a year, she and Jukichi were married and expecting their first child.

By the time she and her family were forcible removed and incarcerated in 1942, Ken was in poor health. Having already suffered a stroke, she spent her incarceration in camp hospitals. In 1943, Ken died in the Topaz concentration camp hospital.
