Women who are changing the world

Women have changed the world at all times, but in modern society they have a special influence on everything that happens.

The American magazine TIME has prepared a multimedia special project called "The First: women leaders Who are changing the world" (TIME Firsts: Women Leaders Who Are Changing the World). All the shots for the project were shot on an iPhone by Louise Dor, a 22-year-old photographer from Brazil. The project brought together more than four dozen of the most influential American women who became pioneers in various fields. The first female commander of a spaceship, the first beauty blogger to earn $ 800 million, the first woman to lead the Anglican Church…
