Daughter of former White House Chief of Staff Sam Skinner, under the George H.W. Bush administration, Jane began her career, unsurprisingly, as a political correspondent. The Northwestern University graduate continued her career in Newscasting, ultimately settling as the anchor for the 2 pm ET edition of “Fox News Live.”
However, she is not active in the field nowadays. In 2010, Skinner announced her retirement from the anchor position to devote more time to family. Skinner has been married to businessman and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell since 1997, and the two are raising their sweet twin daughters in Westchester, New York.
Usha Mittal
Usha Mittal holds her own against her husband Lakshmi Mittal, Chairman and CEO of ArcelorMittal, the world's largest steel company. The two have been going strong since the young age of 21, and Usha has even been given the responsibility of running ArcelorMittal in the managing board’s absence, having had 15 years of experience running a steel plant in Indonesia.
Though impressive as that may be, her biggest contribution is becoming the namesake of the Usha Mittal Institute of Technology. The well-renowned institution is a large promotor of education for women throughout India. This is a woman of principles who sticks up for what she believes in.
Tina Munim
You might not be familiar with this woman if you aren't a fan of the Indian film industry, but it sounds like you should be. Tina Munim, a former Bollywood actress, made her claim to fame in the movie "Des Pardes" ("At Home and Abroad"), which was released in 1978. She is married to businessman Anil Ambani, once ranked the sixth richest man in the world.
Though Munim has left the Bollywood scene after acting in over 30 films, she still has her hand in the arts as an acting member of the Harmony and Art Foundation. She also sits on the board of the Mumbai-based Koklilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital as a chairperson. Munim and Ambani have two sons.
Astrid Menks
Latvian-born Astrid Menks, the second wife to the well-known investor and philanthropist Warren Buffett, has quite a story with the wealthy businessman. The two met while Menks worked as a waitress at a nearby cafe. Buffett frequented the cafe with his former wife Susie, who would often perform there as a singer.
Menks and Buffet then began a 40-year relationship to the full knowledge of Buffett’s wife Susie, who would even be seen out with Menks herself on various occasions. Apparently, Susie and Warren had been living apart for a while. Menks and Buffett tied the knot in 2006, two years after Susie’s passing.
Diana Taylor
Diana Taylor is the domestic partner of businessman and former mayor of New York City, Michael Bloomberg. The Greenwich, Connecticut native graduated from Dartmouth with a degree in economics and subsequently with an MBA from Columbia University. While the two aren't married, their relationship seems stronger than most.
Taylor and Bloomberg met in 2000 after being seated next to each other at an event for the Citizens Budget Commission. Taylor is a strong women's advocate, serving on the board of both the International Women’s Health Coalition, The New York Women’s Foundation, and the YMCA of Greater New York, to name a few.
