Now some of you "older" lotters might be surprised that I even know who Rose the Riveter is, because a lot of people my age don't. But I am well aware of who she was, and what she meant to a lot of people.
Naomi Parker Fraley who was the real Rose the Riveter died Saturday at the age of ninety six years old.
The story attached from MSN tells of the search to find her, and clear up who the real Riveter was.
Mrs. Fraley’s connection to Rosie was made public in 2016, ending years of speculation over who was the model for the fictional 1940s war worker.

I don't think a lot of people did. I also don't think a lot of people knew who she was, as is talked about in the article.
