Audra -- my daughter is now 6 years old, but I remember quite vividly that she went through this same phase. It's frustrating, but yes, they do get past it -- we tried walking with her, putting her in her swing, rocking. Walking helped the most, but I swear my husband wore a groove in the carpet!
I called it the "witching hour" too -- and in fact, I still do -- there is a time of day for every child where they are not at their best. I think it's normal even for us adults (although we don't get to have a tantrum!:-)
Don't worry about age ranges -- every kid is different and yes, she'll eventually grow out of it. It's so hard to listen to a crying baby, but as long as you know she is okay (dry diaper, etc), put her in a safe place with a soft toy and walk away for a few minutes so you can give your husband a hug!
