Countdown to ANNIE! Little Orphan Annie and The Great Depression

The Tony Award-winning musical ANNIE! takes place in 1933 during the Great Depression, a dark time in our country's history. The very lowest point of the Great Depression was when the economy hit rock bottom and unemployment stood at 13 million people (34 million families). As poverty, emigration, and low wages pulled families apart, many children found themselves abandoned at a young age to orphanages, and many orphanages were established by adults as a way of making money. Child labor was cheap and the children could work in small factories or sewing shops like the one in Annie, for very little money, passing more profit onto the orphanage owners.

So who knows the name of the disreputable character that ran the orphanage in ANNIE?
