Award-winning writer and producer of television shows, Shonda Rhimes is a show running force to be reckoned with. She founded the storytelling company Shondaland, together with her partner Betsy Beers, in 2005. Shondaland is responsible for the award-winning series “Grey’s Anatomy,” “Scandal,” “How to Get Away with Murder,” “For the People,” and “Station 19.”

Co-creator of the Times Up movement, Rhimes wants studios, agencies, and lawmakers to work together to promote gender equality. She also hopes to get legislation enacted that would include penalties for companies that fail to stop gender-based or sexual harassment.
