Front Row: Anna Wintour: The Cool Life and Hot Times of Vogue's Editor in Chief

Informative

I love fashiom so it was very cool to read aboit one of my role models, anna wintour. I think she is just a very buisness like person, and that shes not as mean as everyone thinks. I hope one day to be as succesful as her. I mean, if you are that succesful, you dont have to be kind and loving.

Front Row by Jerry Oppenheimer

This is a well-researched, well-written book that shows the true life of Anna Wintour, the editor of Vogue. The book was very engrossing and an easy read at that.

well researched....

A global 'who's who' of the fashion world, this story reinforces the notion that it isn't important to have people skills and compassion to run a company - it's your 'aura'. In this case, Anna appears destined for exactly what she is doing - and apparently doing well. She has earned the technical side of her position. God bless the ravaged souls who serve her every day.....

She's an inspiration

I'm wondering what her Myers-Briggs personality type is. When you can't please everyone, you might as well please yourself and your friends. It makes clear the importance of who you know -- mere talent and hard work are rarely enough. As my mother said about a friend who held the opposite view on an important issue, 'I focus on the things we have in common and her good qualities.' At least she's someone who would be an asset at a dinner party. Most people are starving at life's banquet table. She knows where to find soul food. The book itself is a good read. I'm impressed with the number of adjectives the author surrounds each 'name' with. Not a scrap of research seems to have been wasted, but nothing seems superfluous, either. Now I will see fashion magazines with a new eye, although I prefer trade publications.
