Maria Shriver is featured in the October 2011 issue of Los Angeles Magazine.
In the issue:
Setting out to analyze the complex nature of half the city’s population, we were aware that the biggest challenge would be capturing the diversity of female experience. Icons, as a rule, get reduced over time to having a set of predictable characteristics. But we knew that the women in Los Angeles are more than the clichés that swirl around them. Youth, beauty, athleticism, celebrity—yes, some L.A. women are walking billboards for those qualities.
Others, like the woman on our cover, Maria Shriver, see those attributes and add on several more: strength, brains, commitment to service. Shriver anchors this package with her frank give-and-take with Wallis Annenberg, the philanthropist whose generosity has made our city an immeasurably better place. Whether they’re schoolteachers or spiritual leaders, public defenders or the actress who plays Sue Sylvester on Glee, every woman you’ll read about here is making L.A. a better place.
