Women of New Mexico
by Marta Weigle
Part of The New Deal and folk culture series
About
An intriguing collection of archival photographs from the late 1930s and 1940s, depicting women's lives in settings ranging from the railroad yards at Clovis to the homestead community of Pie Town and from Taos County Hispanic villages to southern ranches. Noted photographers Dorothea Lange, Russell Lee, John Collier, Arthur Rothstein and others produced these compelling images for the Farm Security Administration as part of the WPA project. The images, many showing women at work, are supplemented by descriptive accounts of women's life and work.
