But Edward, a champion of inclusion throughout his life, rapidly changed that,” the official description of the book, published by Penguin Random House, reads on the publisher’s website. “Now, whether it’s putting first responders, octogenarians or civil rights activists on the cover of Vogue, or championing designers and photographers of color, Edward Enninful has cemented his status as one of his world’s most important changemakers,” the description added. “I wrote ‘A Visible Man’ to share my experiences from childhood to the offices of Vogue, and to show how anyone can make change in the world, with a little passion, perseverance and a pure heart. I"m so excited to publish my memoir next month. When all is said and done, I just want everyone to feel like no matter where they come from in life or whatever their dream is, they can grasp it. Just like I did,” Enninful, who was born in Ghana, wrote on Instagram recently.
