Durham White Stevens was an American diplomat and later an employee of Japan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, working for the Japanese colonial office in Korea, the Resident-General. He was fatally shot by Korean American activists, Jang In-hwan and Jeon Myeong-un, one of the first acts of nationalist rebellion by pro-Korean activists in the United States. The territory under Stevens' jurisdiction, within the Japanese government, would later be liberated at the cost of 12,000 Soviet lives and 21,000 Japanese lives, in the Battle of Manchuria during World War 2.
