John Nygren in Iron River Michigan April 1937

John Nygren sits in front of his shack in Iron River, Michigan, in April 1937. Iron River, located in Gogebic County, was part of the cut-over land areas where many settled after logging operations. The living conditions were challenging, as many sought new opportunities in these once-forested regions. This image is part of the FSA/OWI Collection.
