An exploration of women at work
How are women changing the modern workforce? According to photographer and author Chris Crisman, their roles — and the jobs they hold — continue to expand and shift. These changes haven’t come without challenges; women have had to push for space in male-dominated industries and to overcome misconceptions based on gender, class and race.
Kerri Miller talks with Crisman about his book of portraits and essays, “Women’s Work: Stories From Pioneering Women Shaping Our Workforce;” his inspiration to portray this facet of today’s workforce and society, and where future generations can find inspiration.
