Newsweek:

The Rise of China’s Billionaire Tiger Women

Bold cover. Bolder women.

This cover was created for Newsweek during its final years in print, before evolving into what is now The Daily Beast. The feature spotlighted a powerful rise: China’s billionaire women—often dubbed “Tiger Women”—breaking barriers in boardrooms, startups, and global finance.

Visually, the cover had to meet the moment with the same kind of authority. The design leans into a graphic, propagandist style—drawing from Chinese visual history, but flipping it to honor the strength of modern female leadership. Sharp contrasts, unapologetic stance, red power.

It wasn’t just a story about economics. It was a statement about ambition, identity, and the new global face of power.
