The Quiz: Which woman has never been featured as Time Magazine’s “Person of the Year”?
Hillary Clinton
Angela Merkel
Corazon Aquino
Queen Elizabeth II
Before 1999, only three women were granted the title “Woman of the Year” as individuals: Wallis Simpson (1936), Queen Elizabeth II (1952), and Corazon Aquino (1986). In 1999, the title was changed to Person of the Year. Women who have been selected for recognition after the renaming include “The Whistleblowers” (Cynthia Cooper, Coleen Rowley, and Sherron Watkins) in 2002, Melinda Gates (jointly with Bill Gates and Bono) in 2005, Angela Merkel in 2015, “The Silence Breakers” in 2017, Greta Thunberg in 2019 and Kamala Harris (jointly with President Joe Biden) in 2020.
The correct answer to this quiz is Hillary Clinton.
