Melinda Gates is one of TIME’s 100 Most Influential People of 2017. “Her vision for the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has helped lift the lives of millions of people. Its work reflects her impatient optimism,” writes Sheryl Sandberg, the founder of LeanIn.org. “Her ability to think big and move fast. Her love of numbers. (Bill’s not the only data geek in the family.) Her passionate commitment to empowering women and girls, seen in the foundation’s support for increasing access to contraceptives in developing countries. Her fundamental belief in human dignity. It’s all there, woven tightly into the DNA of one of the most ambitious and generous philanthropies in history.” See the full list on TIME.com/time100.

RuPaul Charles (@rupaulofficial) is one of TIME’s 100 Most Influential People of 2017. “As soon as I saw [RuPaul], I wanted to know where he was going, because that was where I wanted to be,” writes the actor and model Naomi Campbell. “Ru was different. Not just because he had perfect, precise clothes and makeup, or because he was the only man I knew who could look that good in a wig and heels. There were no rough edges to be found. But as I got to know him better, I got to experience firsthand his wit and his intelligence—he’s like an encyclopedia. And his beauty is far beyond skin-deep.” See the full list on TIME.com/time100.

Jeff Bezos is one of TIME’s 100 Most Influential People of 2017. “Bezos is a serial innovator: with Amazon, he changed the way the retail industry works; and now he’s applying that same spark of creativity to media, with his ownership of the @washingtonpost and the founding of Amazon Studios,” writes Buzz Aldrin, the second man to walk on the moon. “Still, for me it is his zeal for helping humanity return to the moon, settle Mars and reach destinations beyond that is the most thrilling. Just as Bezos watched my journey half a century ago, I am watching his today.” See the full list on TIME.com/time100. Photograph by @MilesAldridge for TIME. #time100

Viola Davis (@ViolaDavis) is one of TIME’s 100 Most Influential People of 2017. “Viola Davis' hard-won, midlife rise to the very top of her profession has not led her to forget the rough trip she took getting there,” writes fellow actress Meryl Streep. “And that is why she embodies for all women, but especially for women of color, the high-wire rewards of hard work and a dream, risk and faith.” See the full list on TIME.com/time100.
