The Women of Wisconsin Labor Oral History Project consists of interviews with twenty-seven women active in the labor movement in Wisconsin, selected to form a representative sample of unions, geographic areas, and type of work (service, industrial, building trades, public employees, etc.). The women discuss work experiences, their role in their respective union organizations, issues important to them as women workers, and prominent leaders with whom they worked. The project was directed by Joanne Ricca with funding support from the Wisconsin State AFL-CIO, the International Association of Machinists District 10, the United Steel Workers of America District 32, the Wisconsin Labor History Society, and the Milwaukee Chapter of Coalition of Labor Union Women. The interviews were conducted by Jamakaya (formerly J.M. Dombeck) with the exception of one which was conducted by Joanne Ricca. In addition to the tape-recorded interviews, there is background information on the project, short biographies of each interviewee with a brief description of the interview, and indexes to each interview. There are also photographs of some of the interviewees.
