"Migrant Mother", a photo taken by Dorothea Lange, is one of the most iconic photos of the Great Depression. For decades no one knew who the mother was until her identity was revealed in 1978 as Florence Owens Thompson. Initially, Thompson saw the photo as a “curse” as she was told it wouldn't be published and that she would receive compensation. However, near the end of her life, her family asked for donations to cover her medical costs and after receiving thousands of letters, Thompson saw the photo as something to be proud of. She passed on September 16, 1983. The epitaph on her grave reads, "Migrant Mother: A legend of the strength of American motherhood."
