Soledad O'Brien, 45

Why we love her: The Harvard alum (and proud Afro-Cuban), hosted the CNN documentary Latino in America, which explored how Latinos are reshaping our communities and culture and how immigrants are discovering what it means to be American. O'Brien also hosted Black in America, a series about the various issues facing the black community and a look at the culture of black families in America. With both of these documentaries, Soledad did what she does best: she gave a voice to the voiceless.
