The image showcases Earl Tulloss, an African American dragline operator employed by the Tennessee Valley Authority at the Watts Bar Dam in Tennessee. Earl Tulloss stands tall and proud against the backdrop of this colossal engineering feat. Donned in his work overalls, he exudes strength and expertise as he operates a massive crane with precision. His focused gaze reveals not only his dedication but also hints at the challenges faced during this time period. This portrait captures more than just a man operating machinery; it encapsulates an era marked by progress and determination amidst adversity. As one of many workers who contributed to building America's infrastructure, Earl Tulloss represents countless individuals whose efforts often went unrecognized.
