Pauline the Riveter

Biography

Pauline was a Rosie the Riveter

In movies, newspapers, and posters, the Rosie the Riveter campaign stressed the patriotic need for women to enter the work force—and they did, in huge numbers. Duing WWll, women worked in many positions, previously closed to them, with aviation having the greatest increase in female workers. More than 310,000 women worked in the U.S. aircraft industry in 1943, representing 65 percent of the industry’s total workforce.

Pauline Isabelle (Hoiseth) Roche was born on 1 June 1916 in Wheeler, Dunn, Wisconsin, United States, daughter of John Iver Hoiseth and Johanna Elisabeth (Skillingstad) Hoiseth.

She was buried in Rockville Cemetery, Fairfield, California.
