Where Near Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
When 1986
Photographer Jodi Cobb

"Bedouin women veil their faces more strictly than city dwellers but enjoy greater freedom of dress and movement. Besides managing the family tent, some have even taken to driving the tribe's water truck. Driving is a privilege denied women in the city."

—From "Women of Saudi Arabia," October 1987, National Geographic magazine
