Vanity Fair’s Women on Women

Gail Sheehy on Hillary Clinton. Ingrid Sischy on Nicole Kidman. Jacqueline Woodson on Lena Waithe. Leslie Bennetts on Michelle Obama. And two Maureens (Orth and Dowd) on two Tinas (Turner and Fey). Vanity Fair’s Women on Women features a selection of the magazine’s best profiles, essays, and columns on female subjects written by female contributors over the past thirty-five years.

From the vantage point of the female gaze come penetrating profiles on luminaries from Gloria Steinem to Princess Diana to Whoopi Goldberg to essays on workplace sexual harassment (by Bethany McLean) to a post-#MeToo reassessment of the Clinton scandal (by Monica Lewinsky). They tell a singular story about female icons and identity over the last four decades – and all the many ways that women’s voices define our culture.”
