Anna Wintour is the former Global Editorial Director of Vogue and Chief Content Officer for Condé Nast. In 1988, Wintour replaced Grace Mirabella as Editor in Chief at American Vogue. Under her leadership, Vogue consistently reached over 12 million readers in print and an average of 1.2 million monthly visitors online. Forbes named Wintour the most powerful woman in media and entertainment.

During her tenure at Vogue, Wintour spearheaded the editorial practice of featuring celebrities on the cover, took the title’s fashion pages out of the studio and onto the street, and used Condé Nast’s flagship title’s influence to champion new American designers through the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund.

Anna has been actively involved in philanthropic fundraising, particularly for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute, for which she has raised more than $240 million for the museum and serves as an Elective Trustee of the institution. Wintour was named Dame Commander (DBE) of the Order of the British Empire, awarded the Legion d’Honneur, and appointed to the President’s Committee on the Arts and Humanities.
