Union Maids is a 1976 American documentary film directed by Jim Klein, Julia Reichert and Miles Mogulescu. The film was based on the three women from Chicago in the labor history book Rank and File by Staughton Lynd and Alice Lynd.

Production

Like many of her other films, Julia Reichert used a collaborative, nonhierarchical model of filmmaking during the production of Union Maids. She and James Klein shot the documentary on video rather than film. This allowed them longer interviews with their subjects, which, also, allowed the three women to better shape their interviews, and thus their contributions to and representation in the film.

Archival footage of said workers organizing and music of the labor movement were also used.
