Talk to anyone alive in the 50s and they’ll paint you a very different picture of the family arrangement.
Dad was the bread winner, Mom was the homemaker, and if the phone rang during dinner no one got up to get it.
Since then, women have gone into the workforce, and changed the world as we know it. One of those women is Deborah Mannis-Gardner, aptly dubbed The Queen of Sample Clearance.
For over 20 years, Deborah has acquired music for recording artists, films, and video games. Her hard work can be heard on Kanye, Nas, and Diddy albums, as well as on stage in the ground-breaking musical Hamilton.
Deborah is a powerful woman in the music business, but once you talk to her, you’ll see there is nothing she is more proud of than her sixteen-year-old son Curtis.
