A Visible Man

A Memoir

By: Edward Enninful

Narrated by: Edward Enninful

From one of our culture's most important changemakers, a memoir of breaking barriers.

When Edward Enninful became the first Black editor-in-chief of British Vogue, few in the world of fashion wanted to confront how it failed to represent the world we live in. But Edward, a champion of inclusion throughout his life, rapidly changed that.

Now, whether it’s putting first responders, octogenarians or civil rights activists on the cover of Vogue, or championing designers and photographers of colour, Edward Enninful has cemented his status as one of his world’s most important changemakers.

A Visible Man traces an astonishing journey into one of the world’s most exclusive industries. Edward candidly shares how as a Black, gay, working-class refugee, he found in fashion not only a home, but the freedom to share with people the world as he saw it. Written with style, grace, and heart, A Visible Man shines a spotlight on the career of one of the greatest creative minds of our times. It is the story of a visionary who changed not only an industry, but how we understand beauty.

Let Him Talk to You!

Enninful has an amazing story to tell and he does so generously and honestly. In so doing he welcomes us into his many worlds, teaches and inspires. Who knew that learning more about the fashion world could so effectively include learning more, period.

A good read.

A good read for passing time. I would’ve liked to have learned and the life and time in his career and personal life.

Iconic

Edward’s story is such an inspiration and I loved that I was able to hear it in his words and his voice.

Edutainment at its best!

Absolutely loved it! A true story about an African boy who made a success of his life and career. I learned about fashion. Much more than I ever knew. And I'm grateful the author never gave up and didn't allow himself to be completely lost to addictions. I enjoyed the ending just as much as the beginning. Well done.

Amazing!!

What a wonderful memoir. Edward's narration painted a wonderful visual of triumph over adversity. Thank you Edward for your contributions.
