EXCERPT FROM ANNA WINTOUR'S BIO
Dubbed Nuclear Wintour when she took over as Editor of British Vogue, many of her close friends and co-workers quickly come to her defense and say that though she is a decisive, firm boss, she certainly isnt the monster shes made out to be. In watching interviews with her on 60 minutes, Barbara Walters, and Forbes, its hard to believe the petite, soft spoken woman, who seems shy and nervous on camera is supposed to be the brutal boss depicted by Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada.
Background & Upbringing
On November 3, 1949, Charles Wintour, Editor of the London Evening Standard and Eleanor Trego Baker, a Harvard Law Professor, welcomed their first daughter, Anna into the world. Charles and Eleanor would have four more children before their divorce in 1979...

EXCERPT FROM AUDREY'S BIO
In the late 1980s, however, Hepburn turned her attention to charity work and humanitarian projects. Ever since her own struggles in the war, Hepburn had been focused on UNICEF's efforts, usually by acting as a spokesperson. Now that her movie career was over, Hepburn was able to travel and work firsthand with the struggling and underserved populations of countries such as Ethiopia and Turkey. She traveled the world to help with UNICEF's education programs and relief efforts. Hepburn also used her celebrity to bring attention to the problems of struggling countries and population, solidifying her reputation as, not just a beautiful face, but also as a dedicated and kind-hearted diplomat and humanitarian.

EXCERPT FROM COCO CHANEL'S BIO
Although the world today mainly remembers Coco Chanel as the woman who changed the face of fashion, throughout her life she was plagued by controversy. Much of these controversies came from the relationships she had with men, as well as rumored sexual liaisons. Throughout her earlier adult to middle age years, Chanel had many affairs with members of both British and Parisian high society.
Chanel's first long-term affair was with an ex-cavalry member known as Etienne Balsan, a wealthy socialite who provided the French army with its uniforms. She met the young textile maker while working in Moulins, and proceeded to be his mistress for three years. Rumors still continue to circulate about the couple potentially having a child together and claiming that it was the son of Chanel's late sister Julia-Berthe. It was her time with Etienne that would later lead to her meeting the love of her life and the man who would help her rise to fame: Captain Arthur Edward Capel.
