The Great Depression: a stock market crash, vast unemployment, breadlines, millions barely scraping by. With household incomes dwindling, women began to enter the workforce in record numbers. Historically, women had stayed home to tend the kitchen and raise the children. Everything changed during the Great Depression. By 1936, twenty-five percent of all American women were employed outside the home. With public service posters like this one pasted to street corners and abandoned buildings, millions of women began to imagine life with a paycheck.
