Renowned portrait photographer Annie Leibovitz has long captured intimate, compelling portraits of prominent people, from rock icons and athletes to children and heads of state. As she focuses on her current exhibit, “WOMEN: New Portraits,” she discusses her latest work, her vision, how photography and culture are changing and much more with Kristie Lu Stout from CNN’s Talk Asia. She discusses women prominent and relatively unknown — and how women’s accomplishments, more than ever, need to be recognized in the public consciousness.
We definitely encourage you to watch and listen to the interview below, and check out CNN’s gallery showcasing just a few of Leibovitz’s powerful portraits of powerful women.
