Rachel Maddow & Susan Mikula
Rachel Maddow — whom you may know from The Rachel Maddow Show on MSNBC — is the first openly gay woman to be a host for a primetime show. For 20 years, she’s partnered with artist Susan Mikula. The two met when Maddow was in college. Looking to make some side money, Maddow did yard work — and Mikula ended up hiring her. A woman after even my own heart, Mikula uses older technology to create her photographs (such as with Polaroid cameras). Mikula has also had numerous exhibitions all over the country.
