Rosie the Riveteris a cultural icon of the UnitedStates, representing the American women who worked infactories during World War II, many ofwhom produced munitions and warsupplies.[1][2] These women sometimestook entirely new jobs replacing the male workers who were in themilitary. Rosie the Riveter is commonly used as a symbol of feminismand women\'s economic power.[3]
The term \"Rosiethe Riveter\" was first used in 1942 in a song of the same namewritten by Redd Evans and John JacobLoeb. The song was recorded by numerous artists, including thepopular big band leader KayKyser, and it became a national hit.[4]The song portrays \"Rosie\" as a tireless assembly lineworker, who is doing her part to help the American wareffort.[5] The name is said to bea nickname for Rosie Bonavitas who was working for Convairin San Diego, California.[6][7][8]The idea of Rosie resembled Veronica Foster,a real person who in 1941 was Canada\'s poster girl for women in thewar effort in \"Ronnie, the Bren Gun Girl.”
