A Womans Many Roles
Uploaded: October 20, 2005
This is a photo of my sister in her bunker gear. This image as a woman is very powerful to me. I created the image to represent a modern womans role in life. We can accomplish all that we dream. My sister fought hard to become a firefighter at only 5'3 they told her she was too short. She was brought into training because she scored the highest on her written exam. Then she went to fire academy and out paced the men on the fitness testing and set new records within the department. I am very proud of her and her accomplishments both as a firefighter and a mother. Love ya dar!!! :)
