While Martha Stewart and Julia Child alike may have been influential in their time, it's difficult to find an equal comparison. Sticking with the idea of the quaint cooking show host, Rachel Ray, the cute, young, bubbly host who has followed in the footsteps of Martha Stewart, with not only a show but a slot on the Today show and quite a few books, comes to mind. However, when it comes to more general life improvement, like how Martha Stewart rose to the top, more well known names come to mind, such as Oprah. Oprah has influenced people across America for as long as I can remember. I've heard Oprah described as 'the best friend, who is also a therapist, who loves to give you presents.' All of which are very accurate. Oprah is not only relatable to viewers, but she also offers minor consoling and is quick to adorn the audience with new cars. Much like Martha Stewart, Oprah has her own show, as well as O Magazine.
Oprah and Martha Stewart may be vastly different breeds of influential, but there is no denying the power they hold over so many in America.
