Brooklyn notables named to TIME 100 list
‘Most influential’ men and women in the world
Six Brooklyn-related movers and shakers have landed on the eleventh annual “TIME 100,” TIME’s list of the 100 most influential people in the world.
They include Park Slope song writers Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez; Brooklyn Nets forward Jason Collins; former acting Brooklyn U.S. Attorney and current SEC chair Mary Jo White; and Fed chair Janet Yellen.
While “national voice” Beyoncé lives in Westchester and in other locations around the world, she’s included on the list as an honorary Brooklynite for her support of the Nets with husband Jay-Z, and her backing of the Beyoncé Cosmetology Center at the Brooklyn Phoenix House. Beyoncé is featured on the cover of this year’s TIME 100 issue.
