Katherine McIntosh is one of the girls in Dorothea Lange’s photograph of a female migrant worker and her two children. She “is the girl to the left of her mother when you look at the photograph”.

Lange’s
photography, depicting the extreme harshness and poverty of life and families during the U.S. depression era are lasting images, and at least one of her photographs are recognizable by most of us. Her documentation is of extreme historical value.
