malditogrillo:

Maude Callen, a nurse-midwife (cutting a baby’s umbilical cord in this photo) who braved the swampy lowlands of rural South Carolina to help laboring mothers deliver their babies and to attend to any who needed her care for whatever reason. At the time this photograph was taken (1951), Ms. Callen had been working in the Pineville, SC area for nearly thirty years and she we would go on to serve the community another 40 years until her death in 1990 at age 92.
