Yasmin Aga Khan

What I admire about Yasmin Aga Khan is how she turned a dazzling inheritance into purpose. Daughter of screen legend Rita Hayworth and a prince of the Aga Khan dynasty, born in Lausanne, she could have coasted on glamour alone. Instead, after watching Alzheimer's take her mother, she became one of the disease's most dedicated advocates. To me, that pivot from privilege to service is the real measure of a person. Her Bennington education and her quiet philanthropy say more about character than any title ever could. I find her choices genuinely moving and worth far more attention than they get.
