This year, for Women's History Month, we're taking a look at a group of leaders who are currently active making women's history across the labor movement. Check back daily for a new profile and meet some of the people working to improve not only their community, but also to improve conditions for working people across the country. Today's profile is Edith Head of IATSE.

Eight-time Oscar winner Edith Head was one of the founders of the Costume Designers Guild in 1952. She was the inspiration for the character Edna Mode in the animated film "The Incredibles."
