Providing a unique view of American life during the Great Depression and Second World War, each volume in the
Fields of Vision series focuses on a single photographer whose vision helped shape the collective identity of America and influenced the way we look at photographs in the 21st century. All of the images in each volume are chosen from the Library of Congress’s renowned collection of Farm Security Administration (FSA) and Office of War Information (OWI) photographs.
Esther Bubley (1921–1998) was working as a National Archives technician in 1942 when her work caught the eye of Roy Stryker, head of the photographic unit of the Office of War Information (previously the Farm Security Administration). Recognizing her talent, he hired her to cover the home front of World War II, focusing on the lives of ordinary Americans.
