Associated Names
The image shows a woman standing behind a large piece of equipment, possibly a computer or machine from the mid-20th century. She is facing the camera, with her head turned slightly to the side. Her facial features include a focused expression, neatly styled dark hair and she appears to be wearing lipstick. She is dressed in a white shirt, and her hands rest lightly on the equipment in front of her, holding something small. Around her, there are large, boxy, mechanical devices that contribute to the typical office or workplace setting of that time. The background consists of plain, light-colored walls, with lines or cables running vertically. The written text on the image includes the name "Joan Greco" and the date "March, 1956," and the words "J.C.C. E.E. Room."
