Her father, Charles Wintour, who was Editor of the London-based ''Evening Standard'' from 1959 to 1976, consulted with her on how to make the newspaper relevant to the youth of the era. She became interested in fashion as a teenager and her career in fashion journalism began at two British magazines. Later, she moved to the United States, with stints at ''New York'' and ''House & Garden''. She returned to London and was the Editor of British ''Vogue'' between 1985 and 1987. A year later, she assumed control of the franchise's magazine in New York, reviving what many saw as a stagnating publication. Her use of the magazine to shape the fashion industry has been the subject of debate within it. Animal rights activists have attacked her for promoting fur, while other critics have charged her with using the magazine to promote elitist and unattainable views of femininity and beauty.
A former personal assistant, Lauren Weisberger, wrote the bestselling 2003 ''roman à clef'' ''The Devil Wears Prada'', later made into a successful 2006 film starring Meryl Streep as Miranda Priestly, a fashion editor, believed to be based on Wintour. In 2009, Wintour's editorship of ''Vogue'' was the original focus of a documentary film, R. J. Cutler's ''The September Issue''. The film's focus switched to the creative teams and more senior fashion editors as filming progressed. Provided by Wikipedia
