We remember 107-year-old Marie Dey, one of the original "Rosie the Riveters" who worked in defense factories during World War II.
Marie Dey and the legions of Rosies inspired countless women...like Loretta Cooper, Director of Development of the Smithsonian Institution, who dressed as Rosie the Riveter and showed off her muscle during a National World War II Reunion event in 2004.
