TIME Reveals Its Annual List of the 100 Most Influential People in the World

NEW YORK, April 19, 2018  — Today, TIME, a Mere­dith Cor­po­ra­tion (NYSE: MDP) brand, reveals the 2018 TIME 100, its annual list of the 100 most influen­tial peo­ple in the world. The issue has six world­wi­de covers, each highlighting a mem­ber of the TIME 100: Jen­ni­fer Lopez, Nico­le Kid­man, Roger Fede­rer, Tara­na Bur­ke, Satya Nadel­la, and Tif­fa­ny Had­dish.

The TIME 100 fea­tu­res often-sur­pri­sing pai­rings of the list mem­bers and the gue­st con­tri­bu­tors TIME selec­ts to wri­te about them.

“The TIME 100, always a reflec­tion of its moment, looks qui­te dif­fe­rent than in the past,” notes TIME Edi­tor-in-Chief Edward Fel­sen­thal, citing as one exam­ple the record 45 peo­ple on this yea­r’s list who are under 40. “Influen­ce increa­sin­gly kno­ws no sin­gle zip code and no mini­mum age,” he adds, “and a com­mon the­me in the tri­bu­tes is how much we can learn from the young.”

Still, Fel­sen­thal notes, “The elder-as-tea­cher remains a power­ful the­me… Seeing suc­cess in someo­ne who looks like you, thinks like you, grew up like you can chan­ge the cour­se of a life.”
