The Photograph Woman of Dust Bowl, 1936 San Joaquin Valley, California – February, 1936 The car broke down seven miles outside Nipomo. Dorothea — not that Dorothea, a different one entirely — was thirty-three years old, a schoolteacher from Fresno driving home from visiting her mother when the radiator gave out on a grey February afternoon on a road she had taken a hundred times before. While she waited for help she walked. Not far. Just down the road to where she could see smoke from cook fires
