World War II brought women into the work force in record numbers, including a young woman from Athens named Evelyn “Lois” Dozier. During the war, Dozier sent and received letters from men and women in military service, and she published a monthly newsletter, Letters from Lois, about these soldiers. The Atlanta Journal published her popular column, “The Boys Write Home.” Dozier also wrote for the Newnan Herald and the Cobb County Times. She served for ten years as assistant editor and advertising manager of The Coca Cola Bottler in Atlanta, the company magazine for the Coca Cola Company. The war was a turning point for the country—and for one young woman who symbolizes the changing gender roles in the workplace that transformed American economic and social life.
