Rosie the Riveter
Rosie the Riveter is a cultural icon of World War II, representing the women who worked in factories and shipyards during World War II, many of whom produced munitions and war supplies.
These women sometimes took entirely new jobs replacing the male workers who joined the military.
Rosie the Riveter is used as a symbol of American feminism and women's economic advantage.
Similar images of women war workers appeared in other countries such as Britain and Australia.
The idea of Rosie the Riveter originated in a song written in 1942 by Redd Evans and John Jacob Loeb.
Images of women workers were widespread in the media as government posters, and commercial advertising was heavily used by the government to encourage women to volunteer for wartime service in factories.
" Rosie the Riveter" became the subject and title of a Hollywood movie in 1944.

The Life and Times of Rosie the Riveter
The Life and Times of Rosie the Riveter is a 1980 documentary film and the first movie made by Connie Field about the American women who went to work during World War II to do" men's jobs."
In 1996, it was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being" culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant."
The film's title refers to" Rosie the Riveter", the cultural icon that represented women who manned the manufacturing plants which produced munitions and material during World War II.
Connie
Field got the idea for the film from a California Rosie the Riveter reunion, and, with grants from the National Endowment for the Humanities and other charitable sources, conducted interviews with many hundreds of women who had gone into war work.
Out of these she chose five representatives — three black, two white—all marvelously lively, intelligent, and articulate women who recall their experiences with a mixture of pleasant nostalgia and detached bitterness.
The reminiscences are intercut with the realities of the period – old news, films, recruiting trailers, March of Time clips, and pop songs such as" Rosie the Riveter."
These often serve to highlight the disparities between how women were portrayed in wartime media and the actual experiences of these five women.
