Rosie the Riveter was just one of thousands of women who rolled up their sleeves and forged history during World War II. In steel mills across the country, women stepped into vital roles, proving their strength and skill in an industry once dominated by men. In 1943, a group of women steelworkers at Cleveland-Cliffs’ Indiana Harbor steel mill signed this plate to memorialize their contribution to the war effort, taking pride in the vital role they played. "Thelma the Riveter," "Norma the Riveter" and countless others played a crucial role in keeping the mills running. You can see this amazing artifact and more in Steelworkers, our newest exhibit! #RosieTheRiveterDay

We are deeply grateful to Marian “Cindy” Pritzker, one of Chicago’s greatest civic leaders, for her decades of service to our Museum and our city. Griffin MSI was privileged to benefit from her vision and dedication as a longtime member of our Board of Trustees and Life Trustees as well as the founder of our now-iconic Columbian Ball in 1981. Her impact on our institution and the city will be felt for generations to come. May Cindy’s memory be a blessing. https://lnkd.in/g3k5PFpX
