From left to right, Dorothy Thompson (Mrs. Sinclair Lewis) and Roy Pilling (Directory, Los Angeles County Relief Administration) sit side-by-side behind a desk. The desk stretches across the lower left corner. Dorothy Thompson faces and looks towards the camera. Beside her, Roy Pilling sits behind his desk and casts his gaze downward towards a folder of documents. Office walls stand across the background. A map of Los Angeles County hangs from the wall at center, behind Dorothy.
