We couldn’t decide on just one cover star for Forbes’ second annual Richest Self-Made Women issue, so we went with nine. For the first cover shoot of its kind, Forbes gathered nine of the most successful women entrepreneurs in the country, ranging in age from 32 to 69. They include a Silicon Valley CEO, a supermodel- turned-mogul, and a billionaire inventor. Between them, there are as many Harvard MBAs as there are community college dropouts. Combined, these nine women are worth $9.7 billion.

But the region is teeming with innovative new companies, venture capital dollars — a record $2 billion for the greater L.A. area last year — and up-and-coming tech talent. They're quietly transforming local tech with fresh ideas in virtual reality, robotics, online videos, e-commerce, investing — even eating.

  • 7 Publish Ana Martins Kay Cannon
    Kay Cannon’s Girlboss. Netflix, 2017. Ana Cabral Martins, ICS-University of Lisbon, Portugal 1 Girlboss (2017), created by Kay Cannon (writer of Pitch Perfect and 30 Rock), is an American comedy distributed by the streaming platform Netflix. The first and only season was released on April 21, 2017, having been canceled the following June. The show is based on Sophia Amoruso’s autobiographical book #Girlboss (2014) and it follows a fictional Sophia (her last name was changed to Marlowe) as she begins a career as the founder of the Ebay store Nasty Gal Vintage. Talking to The New York Times, Kay Cannon highlighted her objectives: “I wanted to tell the story of a flawed woman that is not a fairy tale”. Adding “rough edges” freed Cannon up to more “interesting storytelling”. Working with Netflix and its binge-able mode of distribution (making an entire season available at the same time) allowed Cannon to feel less restricted when it came to presenting, as she put it, an “off- putting” protagonist. 2 In We Were Feminists Once (2016), feminist and pop culture writer Andi Zeisler states that “premium cable became the place to watch a new paradigm (…): topical, well-written shows about complex, not-always-likable, often straight-up immoral people” (97). She reminds readers that Sex and the City (1998-2004), for instance, “while tarnished by time”, was effectively “feminist television because its characters were so polarizing, flawed, even unlikable”. In fact, her argument in favor of “polarizing” and “unlikable” characters includes the need to allow women to fail as spectacularly an often as anyone else”.
