Who created Rosie the Riveter?
Rosie the Riveter
Norman Rockwell's image of "Rosie the Riveter" received mass distribution on the cover of the "Saturday Evening Post" on Memorial Day, May 29, 1943. Rockwell's illustration features a brawny woman taking her lunch break with a rivet gun on her lap and beneath her penny loafer a copy of Adolf Hitler's manifesto, "Mein Kampf". Her lunch box reads "Rosie"; viewers quickly recognized that to be "Rosie the Riveter" from the familiar song. Rockwell, America's best-known popular illustrator of the day, based the pose of his 'Rosie' on that of Michelangelo's 1509 painting "Prophet Isaiah" from the Sistine Chapel ceiling. Rosie is holding a ham sandwich in her left hand, and her blue overalls are adorned with badges and buttons: a Red Cross blood donor button, a white "V for Victory" button, a Blue Star Mothers pin, an Army-Navy E Service production award pin, two bronze civilian service awards, and her personal identity badge. Rockwell's model was a Vermont resident, 19-year-old Mary Doyle, who was a telephone operator near where Rockwell lived, not a riveter. Rockwell painted his "Rosie" as a larger woman than his model, and he later phoned to apologize. In a post interview, Mary explained that she was actually holding a sandwich while posing for the poster and that the rivet-gun she was holding was fake, she never saw Hitler's copy of Mein Kampf, and she did have a white handkerchief in her pocket like the picture depicts. The "Post"s cover image proved hugely popular, and the magazine loaned it to the U.S. Treasury Department for the duration of the war, for use in war bond drives.

Rosie Webster
Flanagan said she "disliked" playing Rosie. Speaking to the "Sunday Mirror", Flanagan commented: "When I'm acting, I like things to feel real, and I didn't like Rosie's bitchiness. I didn't enjoy playing that kind of character. She went through a phase of being such a catty girl. As an actress you do the best job you can, but I didn't enjoy it because it didn't feel real. I always said to myself that I was going to leave when I turned 21. For me, the show represents my childhood, and I just couldn't have properly become an adult if I hadn't left. I'm so grateful for the opportunities Corrie has given me, but I was in a bubble and the time is right for me to go. It finally feels as though I've left my childhood behind. People keep asking me what I'm going to do next, but I just want to enjoy being me and live for the moment for a while. I've been on Corrie since I was 10. It hasn't just been my job, it's been my whole life." Flanagan added that she wanted to play a "completely different character, such as a role in "Downton Abbey" or Juliet in "Romeo and Juliet"".

Latinas and World War II
As exemplified by the iconic image of Rosie the Riveter, during World War II due to the increasing lack of men on the home front, women started to migrate into more factory and industry-based jobs. In addition, not only were men leaving their factory jobs to enlist in the Army, the need for factory workers was increasing as the need for defense production increased. As this need increased, "Factory managers considered 'the degree to which womanpower might take the place of manpower ... on the factory floor.'" What is not identified by Rosie the Riveter, is that many of the women taking up these position were, in fact, Latinas. Latina women started to fill the positions left behind by men, and as the war progressed these factories started to produce parts for weapons, ships, or aircraft as opposed to whatever products they produced pre-war. The Friedrich Refrigeration Company in San Antonio, Texas, was on contract to make parts for bombs, and much of the company's workforce consisted of Mexican-American women.

Rosie the Riveter

This caused conflict between Sally and Martin's mother-in-law, Ivy Tilsley (Lynne Perrie). However, Sally soon gave up work in order to look after Rosie full-time. Rosie had few storylines until the breakdown of her parents' marriage following her father Kevin's affair with Natalie Horrocks (Denise Welch). She then went through a bullying phase at school. Because of this and other difficulties, Sally decided to enroll her daughter at the more prestigious and academically rigorous Oakhill Grammar School. However, in order to afford the private school's fees, Sally took a job as a PA for Ian Davenport (Philip Bretherton), the father of one of Rosie's friends.

Ad Council
The Ad Council claimed the 1943 "We Can Do It!" poster (associated with Rosie the Riveter after 1982) was developed by the WAC as part of its "Women in War Jobs" campaign. In February 2012 during the Ad Council's 70th anniversary celebration, an interactive application designed by Animax's HelpsGood digital agency was linked to the Ad Council's Facebook page. The Facebook app was called "Rosify Yourself" and it allowed viewers to upload images of their faces to be incorporated into the "We Can Do It!" poster, then saved to be shared with friends. Ad Council President and CEO Peggy Conlon posted her own "Rosified" face on "The Huffington Post" in an article about the Ad Council's past 70 years of public service. The staff of the TV show "Today" posted two "Rosified" images on their Web site, using the faces of news anchors Matt Lauer and Ann Curry. However, the now-famous poster was actually produced by an internal Westinghouse corporate program as part of a series of posters shown to Westinghouse employees for two weeks then discarded. It was not produced by the Ad Council nor was it used for recruiting women workers.Several recent Ad Council PSA campaigns have involved partnerships with film production companies, including Warner Bros., Sony Pictures Entertainment, and Disney. Examples include a partnership with Warner Bros. featuring characters from "Where the Wild Things Are" in PSAs to counteract childhood obesity, PSAs for child passenger safety featuring clips from Warner Bros. "The Wizard of Oz", a partnership with Sony Pictures Entertainment's "The Smurfs 2" to encourage children to explore nature, and Disney characters such as Baby Einstein for the LATCH System for the U.S. Department of Transportation, "Pinocchio" and "The Jungle Book" for MyPyramid, "Bambi", "Sleeping Beauty", and "Disney's Adventures of the Gummi Bears" for Smokey Bear, "Cinderella" for child booster seats by the U.S. Department of Transportation, and the "Little Einsteins" for art instruction.

Dante Gabriel Rossetti
The popularity, frequent reproduction, and general availability of Rossetti's later paintings of women have led to this association with "a morbid and languorous sensuality". His small-scale early works and drawings are less well known, but it is in these that his originality, technical inventiveness, and significance in the movement away from Academic tradition can best be seen. As Roger Fry wrote in 1916, "Rossetti more than any other artist since Blake may be hailed as a forerunner of the new ideas" in English Art.Rossetti was played by Oliver Reed in Ken Russell's television film "Dante's Inferno" (1967).

Sophie and Sian run away together, but are found a month later by Jason Grimshaw (Ryan Thomas). Rosie therefore began to see Jason in a new light, and began a relationship. Rosie was devastated to learn that her father, Kevin (Michael Le Vell), had had an affair and fathered a son called Jack with Molly Dobbs (Vicky Binns). This caused Rosie to move out of the family home and to live with Jason. Rosie later forgave her father and asked to get to know her baby brother. However, this was a ruse to allow Rosie to enter a modelling audition, posing as mother and baby. Not only was Rosie unsuccessful, but when she returned home she realised she had brought the wrong baby with her. A few months later, Rosie received an opportunity to take part in reality television series. She broke off her relationship with Jason and left for London.

Monroe was asked to star in a promotional film about the war effort at home. The song "Rosie the Riveter" was popular at the time, and Monroe happened to best fit the description of the worker depicted in the song. "Rosie" went on to become perhaps the most widely recognized icon of that era. The films and posters she appeared in were used to encourage women to go to work in support of the war effort. At the age of 50, Monroe realized her dream of flying when she obtained a pilot's license. In 1978, she crashed in her small propeller plane when the engine failed during takeoff. The accident resulted in the loss of one kidney and the sight in her left eye, and ended her flying career.

Crystal Bell of "Huffington Post" said of her first appearance only that Leakes "does well", but by the time of her third appearance in "Big Brother", after having praised guest star Matt Bomer, she added that "he's no NeNe Leakes, but not everyone can be that fabulous".

We Can Do It!
During World War II, the "We Can Do It!" poster was not connected to the 1942 song "Rosie the Riveter", nor to the widely seen Norman Rockwell painting called "Rosie the Riveter" that appeared on the cover of the Memorial Day issue of the "Saturday Evening Post", May 29, 1943. The Westinghouse poster was not associated with any of the women nicknamed "Rosie" who came forward to promote women working for war production on the home front. Rather, after being displayed for two weeks in February 1943 to some Westinghouse factory workers, it disappeared for nearly four decades. Other "Rosie" images prevailed, often photographs of actual workers. The Office of War Information geared up for a massive nationwide advertising campaign to sell the war, but "We Can Do It!" was not part of it.

During World War II, his wife, Rosalind (Palmer) Walter worked on the night shift as a riveter on the Corsair, the F4U Marine gull-winged, fighter airplane, inspiring the song “Rosie the Riveter.”
Rosie the Riveter
According to the "Encyclopedia of American Economic History", "Rosie the Riveter" inspired a social movement that increased the number of working American women from 12 million to 20 million by 1944, a 57% increase from 1940. By 1944 only 1.7 million unmarried men between the ages of 20 and 34 worked in the defense industry, while 4.1 million unmarried women between those ages did so. Although the image of "Rosie the Riveter" reflected the industrial work of welders and riveters during World War II, the majority of working women filled non-factory positions in every sector of the economy. What unified the experiences of these women was that they proved to themselves (and the country) that they could do a "man's job" and could do it well. In 1942, just between the months of January and July, the estimates of the proportion of jobs that would be "acceptable" for women was raised by employers from 29 to 85%. African American women were some of those most affected by the need for women workers. It has been said that it was the process of whites working alongside blacks during the time that encouraged a breaking down of social barriers and a healthy recognition of diversity.

Rosie Webster
Rosie began summer work as a PA in Underworld, the neighbourhood underwear factory, before beginning studies for her A-Levels at Weatherfield High. She began a secret affair with teacher John Stape (Graeme Hawley). Fiz Brown (Jennie McAlpine), John's girlfriend, suspected that John was having an affair, but mistakenly thought he was sleeping with Rosie's mother Sally. This led to a street brawl and, realising the trouble she had caused, Rosie split up with John. However, John blamed Rosie for the consequences of their affair. John later returned and kidnapped her on two separate occasions—the first time he held her only briefly, but the second time he kidnapped her for several weeks, keeping her in the attic of his late grandmother's house. Rosie escaped when Fiz accidentally discovered her. Later, Rosie decided to make some money from her ordeal and sold her story to the local papers as well as posing for photographs. Her parents found out about this and strongly disapproved of it. Although John had been arrested for kidnapping, he contacted Rosie and asked her to visit him in prison. She did so, and she was overjoyed when he told her he was giving her £150,000 in compensation. Rosie used the money to buy a sports car and invest in shares of "Underworld". However, her ex-boyfriend Luke Strong (Craig Kelly) conned her out of most of the money. Desperate for money, Rosie tried to blackmail John. She demanded £50,000 from him, saying that if he didn't pay up, she would claim he'd attacked her again. When John refused to pay her, Rosie carried out her threat, but inconsistencies in her story soon came to light. Rosie was forced to apologise and retract her statement to the police.

American women in World War II
American women in World War II became involved in many tasks they rarely had before; as the war involved global conflict on an unprecedented scale, the absolute urgency of mobilizing the entire population made the expansion of the role of women inevitable. Their services were recruited through a variety of methods, including posters and other print advertising, as well as popular songs. Among the most iconic images were those depicting "Rosie the Riveter", a woman factory laborer performing what was previously considered man's work. The women whose images became most closely associated with Rosie the Riveter were Geraldine Hoff Doyle, a metal presser at a Michigan factory; Mary Doyle Keefe; Rosalind P. Walter, who went on to become a well known public television benefactor; and Naomi Parker Fraley, who worked for a Navy machine shop in California during the war.
