Life and career.
Kodama was born in Wakayama City (Wakayama Prefecture, Japan) in 1945. She graduated from Kuwasawa Design School in 1967. She then worked as a photographer for a company named Le Mars ().
In 1990 "Grafication", a PR magazine of Fuji Xerox, published a series of pieces by Kodama that were later collected into her first photobook, "Criteria." With its depiction of nuclear power plants and other scenes of advanced technology, this book was widely noted as a remarkable document.
This was followed by depictions of street life in the metropolis, in the photobook "Tokyo Kinetic" and various exhibitions. In 1993, Kodama won the Annual Award of the Photographic Society of Japan. From April 1993 to March 1995, the magazine "Asahi Camera" ran a series by her, "Tokyo Cruising."
