Howard Miller in 1942 at Pittsburgh.
It inspired housewives and women in general to start working in a war fare industry. This connects/relates to the WW2 era because all most all of the men  went to war to fight and there were no more people to make weapons for the war and the woman had to step up so this really encouraged them and inspired them!

Knight was a painter in the realist tradition and who embraced English Impressionism. Knight was among the most successful and popular painters in Britain. Her success in the male-dominated British art establishment made the way for greater status and recognition for women artists.
In 1929, she was created a Dame, and in 1936 became the first woman elected to full membership of the Royal Academy since its foundation in 1768. Her large exhibition at the Royal Academy in 1965 was the first for a woman. Knight was known for painting  the world of the theatre and ballet in London, and for being a war artist during the Second World War. She was also greatly interested in, and inspired by marginalised communities and individuals, including Gypsies and circus performers.
