Annie Hughes

In 1957, Annie is a single mother living as a waitress in Rockwell, Maine. She often works long shifts to support her 13 year old son, Hogarth, after her husband died in the war. Thankfully he's generally intelligent and self-sufficient, much like his mother. Caring and kind to family, friends and strangers, she has a limit to what she'll tolerate before putting her foot down. Often stressed with worry over money & Hogarth's safety, she nonetheless enjoys getting outside and going on the little 'adventures' her son invents. His latest hijinks, involving a giant metal man, became a little too real. Now on top of everything else she has to keep a 50 foot tall alien machine secret from the military or they might try and take her son (or just dash his dreams).
