Strong Women Rising
I am interested in women’s stories, particularly the daily lives of “ordinary” women who have pushed gender equality forward. With the "Strong Women Rising" series, I tell stories from suffrage to 1930s beauticians to the "essential workers" of the COVID pandemic to the Dobbs decision. Let's take a moment to appreciate strong women.
Thank you to my brother Larry Matelski who made all the special frames.
Homage During the Pandemic and Always
There are five individual "homages." The project started during the COVID pandemic when society appreciated "essential workers" like healthcare workers, teachers, and grocery store workers.
These "essential workers" are always indispensable. They help our society function. I've added a farmer and a bus driver. There are many others as well. Are there other "essential workers" or "essential people?" Email me at maureepc@gmail.com with your suggestions.
