Washington insiders who parlay knowledge, access, influence and wealth into real power.
Our 8th annual Power 100 list. (Cover designed by Matt Rippetoe)
In a city where power is everything, it can be an arduous task to select the 100 names who rise to the top. But for the eighth year, Washington Life is recognizing the individuals from a wide variety of professional fields, from K Street lawyers and lobbyists to media mavens, former politicos turned activists, cultural leaders and even a sports star.
