Military Women: WWII to Present

A picture is worth a thousand words…

True to this axiom, these photos reveal the women you see. Their stories are shown in their faces. They are some of our nation’s women Veterans. Their stories are AMERICAN stories.

I created this project to shine a light for the American people on our women Veterans from a civilian’s perspective. Each interview reveals why these Veterans chose military service.

“In a Heartbeat” Exhibit

Created in August 2014, at the request of BG Wilma F. Vaught, USAF (Ret.) for a Veteran’s Day Exhibit honoring our women Veterans, I used photos and interviews of the women Veterans interviewed to that date. The “In a Heart Beat” photography exhibit opened on Veteran’s Day (2014) at the Women’s Memorial where it stayed for eleven months. On Veteran’s Day 2015, the exhibit opened at the Tidewater Community College Library in Hampton Roads, Virginia.

Exhibit is available to travel
