Esther Bubley’s photographs of Dissin’s Guest House effectively launched her career. They offer a rare and intimate view into the life of World War II’s “government girls”―the young female clerks, typists, and stenographers who kept the wartime bureaucracy running. Bubley made these images in 1943, when she was a 22-year-old aspiring documentary photographer at the Office of War Information (OWI).
