was a Japanese scriptwriter.

Oshin, a serialised morning TV drama or asadora, was the first asadora to be both produced and written by women in Japan.

Oshin was broadcast throughout Asia and became one of Japan's most famous television dramas. The series was developed from Hashida's original script.

Awards Hashida received the Broadcasting Culture Award, the Golden Arrow and the Most Distinguished Individual Achievement Award in 1979. Four years later she received the Cultural Achievement Award in Broadcasting and the Kikuchi Kan Award.
