World War II was a major turning point in the history of America’s working women. As millions of men entered the armed forces, the traditional division of labor between the sexes was swept aside as women were hired for “men’s jobs” in the war industries. The New York based film and documentary company Spargel Productions produced “The Real Rosie The Riveter Project,” a series of high definition video histories documenting the life stories of the women who went work in America’s defense plants during the Second World War. The interviews, performed by filmmakers Anne de Mare and Kirsten Kelly, comprise this oral history archive at The Tamiment Library and Robert F. Wagner Labor Archives.
