Scope and content
ca. 1939. The Tacoma Times began publication in 1903, and eventually grew into a general circulation daily. This photograph taken in 1939 shows two employees at the Times, identified as Jen (Jean Hudson) on left and Bev (Beverly Thompson), as they joke with each other over desks stacked high with paperwork and photographs. The women worked on the Society section of the paper. The Society Department and women's page features were handled by a staff of three women, the only women writers on the paper. Jean Hudson was the Society Editor. The Tacoma Times ceased publication on March 31, 1949.
