Jennifer Seymour Whitaker

Jennifer Seymour Whitaker is writing a book (entitled The Women’s Revolution, Interrupted) about the ways in which the women’s revolution has changed our world, and the ways it hasn’t. She is exploring what is now holding women back from full equality and what they need to do about it. She has published two other books, How Can Africa Survive, and Salvaging the Land of Plenty. Formerly she was a Senior Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, and Associate Editor of Foreign Affairs magazine. While at the Council she created a program on Women and U.S. Foreign Policy, which led her to her current focus on women and power.
