Read the passage carefully.
In March 1936, Lange was driving home to San Francisco after completing a job. Along the way, she passed a crude sign announcing PEA-PICKERS CAMP. . . . Leaving her car, Lange saw a mother seated in a canvas lean-to with a baby in her arms and two other children huddled around her. The woman seemed stunned and despairing over her family's plight. Lange told what happened next:
I saw and approached the hungry and desperate mother, as if drawn by a magnet. I do not remember how I explained my presence or my camera to her, but I do remember she asked me no questions. . . . I did not ask her name or history. She told me her age, that she was thirty-two. She said that they had been living on frozen vegetables from the surrounding fields, and birds that the children had killed. She had just sold the tires from her car to buy food. There she sat in that lean-to tent with her children huddled around her, and seemed to know that my pictures might help her, and so she helped me. There was a sort of equality about it.
