I would like to find out how having that job influenced their lives. I like to think of them as the forerunners to the modern feminist movement. (not going political here, just a comment in a good light)

enjoyed the pix, noticed there are few smiles...signs of the times? it seems to be written all over their faces--the hardness of the times.
