Best Answer

Dorothea Lange (May 26, 1895 - October 11, 1965) was a photographer and a photojournalist, famous for her iconic images captured of farmers and migrant workers impoverished by the Great Depression, the Dust Bowl, and the collapse of American agriculture during that time period. Her photographs have become iconic, symbols of the suffering and the uncertainty of America at its most vulnerable hour. Her photographs also brought attention to the plight of poor rural workers. Her most famous photograph is one entitled "Migrant Mother," depicting a struggling young mother embraced by her two frail children.
