Mississippi Matilda

Matilda Powell Williams (January 27, 1914 – November 15, 1978), known in her professional career as Mississippi Matilda, was an American Delta blues singer and songwriter. In 1936, at her only recording session, she waxed four self-penned songs. Only three were released at the time, although all four have since appeared on various compilation albums. She is best known for her track, "Hard Working Woman".
