This edited volume examines mass media portrayals of women leaders and other powerful women in popular culture. Contributors argue that increased media visibility and representation can lead to more widespread acceptance of women as societal leaders.

The book employs an interdisciplinary, intersectional, and international approach to its coverage of these portrayals and their meanings for society and gender norms. Through a feminist lens, contributors examine these cultural representations within the context of gender, race, sexuality, and social class/economic status. Contributors write from varied disciplinary backgrounds, including journalism, media studies, communication, entertainment studies, sociology, psychology, anthropology, political science, information science, business, and education.
