About this film

Michael Dwyer presents an excellent view of Vermont rural life on the eve of U.S. entry into World War II. In 1941 the Farm Security Administration sent photographer Jack Delano to Rutland to photograph the Rutland Fair. This assignment was intended to photographically document rural life in Vermont. Additional photos by Delano can be found on the web site of the Library of Congress. Jim Davidson hosts the program.
