SUMMARY:Discovering History Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:A Lens on the Ladies: Gender and Representation in 1920s Ravens
 wood\, WV\nFaith Walker\, Museum director\, The Great Bend Museum\, Ravens
 wood\, WV\nClara Weisheit (1885–1965) was a dedicated amateur photograph
 er who documented both the ordinary and extraordinary moments of life in R
 avenswood\, as well as her travels across the country\, between 1918 and 1
 940. Her images—from quiet scenes on her front porch to sweeping landsca
 pes of the Pacific coast—reflect her adventurous spirit and strong sense
  of home. More than personal mementos\, her photographs provide a rare\, c
 andid window into women’s lives in Ravenswood between the World Wars. By
  comparing Weisheit’s work with other contemporary images\, this present
 ation explores evolving gender roles in a rural community a century ago an
 d the role of photography in shaping representation.\n\nJoin us at the Gre
 at Bend Museum in Ravenswood for “Behind Clara’s Lens: The Life and Ph
 otography of Clara Weisheit\,” opening May 17!\n\nThis event is sponsore
 d by the Washington County Public Library\, and is FREE and open to the pu
 blic.
