Anyone have any clue as to what agency writer/director Kiyoshi Kurosawa belongs to or who represents him, either overseas or here in the States?

You might try emailing Jason Gray. He works in the Japanese film industry and has a blog detailing its inner workings. He has written about Kiyoshi Kurosawa numerous times. He may be able to help you.

Let me know if this helps and you are able to get in touch with Kurosawa!

Good luck!

Alternately, you may want to contact Midnight Eye, a website dedicated to Japanese cinema. I know they have interviewed him and may have more information for you.

I will certainly try those avenues out. Thanks for that, jeff and I'll keep you posted if I have any success.

I've found lots of information about Kiyoshi Kurosawa there... including the website of his new movie Retribution (Sakebi).

and the upcoming release of a book dedicated to him and his films:

'The Films of Kiyoshi Kurosawa: Master of Fear' by J. White
