Cherie Blair
CBE, QC, Wife of the former British Prime Minister
Founder of Cherie Blair Foundation for Women
Wife of former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, leading lawyer and committed campaigner for women's rights, Cherie set up the Cherie Blair Foundation for Women in 2008 to help women build small and growing businesses in developing and emerging markets so that they can contribute to their economies and have a stronger voice in their societies.
Mary Hart
Mary’s extraordinary and unprecedented run as co-host of Entertainment Tonight for thirty years made her as recognizable as many of the big stars she has interviewed. The program began in 1981 as a fledgling experiment made possible only by the advent of satellite broadcast technology. Today, media historians give credit to Mary for her role not only in building the show into a powerhouse, but for also helping to pioneer the genre as a whole. The best reviews came from viewers who would often stop her to say, “We have dinner with you every night.”
