Meghan, Duchess of Sussex

Meghan's story fascinates me precisely because of its sharp turns. She built a solid acting career, most visibly on Suits, then traded the screen for one of the most scrutinized public roles imaginable as Duchess of Sussex. Whatever you make of the headlines, I respect her insistence on speaking in her own voice while standing inside an institution famous for silence. Her communications training from Northwestern clearly shows. What strikes me is her staying power: she shifted from actress to global public figure and still held the world's attention through the entire transition. Like her or not, she reads the cultural moment remarkably well.
