Anna Wintour - Vogue'i peatoimetaja aastast 1988, üks mõjuvõimsamaid meediapersoone maailmas. Enam kui kolmekümne aasta jooksul ilmunud Vogue'i numbrites ja selle haruajakirjades on Anna defineerinud nii moetrende kui ka ilustandardeid, dikteerides miljonitele inimestele, mida osta, kuidas välja näha ja keda oluliseks pidada. Tema otsustab, milliseid kuulsusi ja modelle pildistada ja millistesse rõivastesse nad riietada.Kogu valitsusaja jooksul Vogue'is on tema ametist loobumine või lahtilaskmine andnud pidevalt ainest oletusteks. Kuid vaatamata terava avaliku kriitika tulvale on Anna mõjuvõim ajaga üksnes kasvanud, sest ta tunneb ökosüsteemi, milles tegutseb, paremini kui keegi teine. Võiks lausa öelda, et ta ise selle leiutaski.Tuginedes ulatuslikele intervjuudele Anna Wintouri lähimate sõprade ja koostööpartnerite ja moemaailma suurimate nimedega, on ajakirjanik Amy Odell kirjutanud Wintouri kõige põhjalikuma portree, mis eales avaldatud.* Amy Odell on moe- ja kultuuriajakirjanik. Tema tööd on ilmunud ajakirjades New York Magazine, The Economist's 1843, Bloomberg Businessweek ja paljudes teistes väljaannetes.
