As a female photographer and filmmaker, I’ve spent a lifetime working in a male-dominated profession. Things have improved for women in the U.S. workforce over the past three decades but change has been slow and we still have a way to go in terms of equal pay and opportunities. Gender equality in the workplace is still a distant reality for many women.

Someday, female equality in the workplace will be common. But, right now that’s not the case in many professions. It’s no secret that women still face various forms of gender bias in the workforce. Equally-qualified women are getting the short end of the stick from both male and female managers in hiring, pay, performance evaluations, and promotions. But there’s hope. This past year has been a landmark one for women in the workplace. My hope is that this forward momentum continues.
