EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph by Carl Mydans, taken in March 1936, transports us back to a time when America was grappling with economic hardship. The image showcases two determined carpenters diligently stripping logs for shelters at Wilson Cedar Forest near Lebanon, Tennessee. As part of the New Deal's Resettlement Administration efforts, these men exemplify the spirit of cooperation and industry that prevailed during this challenging era. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness the early morning light casting long shadows on their faces as they work tirelessly with their axes. Their weathered expressions reveal both determination and exhaustion—a testament to their commitment to providing shelter for those in need. The logging industry played a crucial role in supporting communities across Southeast America during this period. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of how hardworking individuals like these carpenters contributed to rebuilding society amidst adversity. Carl Mydans skillfully captures not only the physical labor involved but also hints at the camaraderie shared between workers striving towards a common goal. Through his lens, he immortalizes an important chapter in American history—the resilience and resourcefulness displayed by ordinary men who refused to succumb to despair. As we reflect upon this image today, it serves as an enduring symbol of hope and perseverance—reminding us that even in our darkest moments, human determination can overcome any obstacle life throws our way.
