Radium Girls is based on a true and tragic story that defined American labor history in the 1920’s. The Radium Girls were factory workers who painted dials with radium-based paint and mysteriously started dying. The public didn’t know of radium’s toxic nature. In fact, Madame Curie, the internationally adored physicist and chemist, convinced the world of radium’s healing powers. In the factories, laborers who painted were instructed to finely point their brushes by molding the bristles with their mouths, but this process ultimately poisoned the laborers themselves. As doctors slowly began to discover radium’s devastating harm, five women in New Jersey sued their employers but reached a settlement outside the court in 1928. Those women’s stories serve as source material in D.W. Gregory’s work
