Full Biography
Anna Wintour, born November 3, 1949 in London, UK, is the renowned editor-in-chief of American Vogue since 1988. Known for her distinctive pageboy bob and sunglasses, she has significantly influenced the fashion industry with her keen eye for trends and support of young designers. Her reported demanding personality earned her the nickname 'Nuclear Wintour'. Daughter of Charles Wintour, former editor of London Evening Standard, Anna's career began in British magazines before moving to the US. She has faced criticism from animal rights activists for promoting fur, while others argue she promotes elitist views on femininity and beauty through Vogue. Her influence was depicted in Lauren Weisberger's novel 'The Devil Wears Prada', with Meryl Streep portraying a character believed to be based on Wintour. She was also the subject of R.J. Cutler's documentary 'The September Issue'.
