Susan Wojcicki

She began her career at Intel and became involved in the creation of Google in 1998 when she and her husband Dennis rented their garage to Google’s co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin. As Google’s 16th employee and first marketing manager, Susan helped create the company’s logo, developed AdSense, Google Analytics, Google Books, Google Images, and led the acquisitions of YouTube and DoubleClick.

In 2013, AdWeek called Susan “the most important person in advertising.” In 2015, TIME named her one of the 100 most influential people, and in 2017 the same publication named her “the most powerful woman on the internet.” 

Susan graduated with honors from Harvard University, held a master's in economics from UC Santa Cruz, and an MBA from UCLA Anderson. She served on the boards of directors for Salesforce, Waymo, and Planet Labs, as well as the boards of Room to Read and Environmental Defense Fund.

In 2015, American Photo Magazine named Lynsey as one of five most influential photographers of the past 25 years, saying she changed the way we saw the world's conflicts.

Addario is the recipient of numerous awards, including a MacArthur fellowship, two Pulitzer Prizes for overseas reporting (she was part of the New York Times team who won for the Ukraine War 2023, and the NYT team for Afghanistan Pakistan coverage in 2009) and a Pulitzer finalist for Feature photography 2025 for her story on a young Ukrainian girl with cancer, a finalist in Breaking News Photography out of Ukraine 2023; she recently won a Polk award for her Ukraine coverage in 2022, an Overseas Press Club President’s Award and Olivier Rebbot Award, and two Emmy nominations.

In 2015, Addario wrote a New York Times best-selling memoir, "It's What I Do," which chronicles her personal and professional life as a photojournalist coming of age in the post-9/11 world.  In 2018, she released her first solo collection of photography, “Of Love and War,” published by Penguin Press.  A feature documentary on Addario’s life directed by Oscar-winning directors of the film “Free Solo”, Jimmy Chin and Chai Vasarhelyi, will premiere at the Toronto Film Festival 2025.
