EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the resilience and determination of Cloe Weaver, a mother of four children, during the height of World War II in 1943. Taken by renowned photographer Jack Delano, this image showcases Cloe's employment as a helper at the roundhouse in Clinton, Iowa for the Chicago and Northwestern Railway. In her blue collar attire consisting of bib overalls and a headscarf, Cloe stands confidently beside the turntable she is learning to operate. Her husband works for a structural steel company, highlighting their shared commitment to supporting their family amidst challenging times. The photo not only reflects an era when women were entering traditionally male-dominated roles but also symbolizes the strength and resourcefulness displayed by countless American families during wartime. It serves as a testament to both individual determination and collective sacrifice. Preserved within the Library of Congress' Farm Security Administration collection, this image offers us a glimpse into history - capturing not just one woman's journey but also representing thousands who contributed to America's war effort on various fronts. As we admire this powerful photograph by Jack Delano, let us remember those unsung heroes like Cloe Weaver who played vital roles in shaping our nation's history through their unwavering dedication and resolve.
