| Abstract | Grant Wood's "American Gothic," intended to represent the Depression Era, Midwestern farmer, has been regarded by many as the stereotypical representation of a true American farmer for decades. While this painting does represent farmers in the early part of the 20th century, the author feels obliged to say that it is time to drop this stereotype and open one's eyes to the modern day farmer. In this essay, the author discusses the impact of this negative, outdated perception of farming to young college graduates, like him, who choose it as an occupation. He urges those who question the future of American agriculture or believe a modern day farmer is defined by "American Gothic" to change their negative attitude by looking into the eager eyes of a young farmer.
