(To celebrate the launch of TIME’s new multimedia project – 100 Photographs: The Most Influential Images of All Time – we asked leaders in a number of fields, from technology to the arts to business, to share the single photograph that most influenced their lives. Purchase the 100 Photographs book now.)
'The Solvay Conference in 1927 brought together the world’s most prominent scientists and physicists, including Albert Einstein, who you can see front and center here. Seventeen of them were or would become Nobel Prize winners. At first glance this may not be the most moving photo, but to me it subtly communicates two very powerful messages. First, that the pursuit of human progress and advances in science are incredible forces to bring people together. And perhaps even more impactful to me is the presence of the one woman in attendance, Marie Curie. As a woman pioneer in a field clearly so dominated at the time by men, Curie remains the only person in history to ever win a Nobel Prize in two different sciences – but perhaps not for long! She paved the way for so many girls who are interested in becoming engineers, scientists and mathematicians, and a similar photo today may look a lot less like Solvay and a lot more like the world around us.'

'Perhaps'? Who, are you kidding Chelsea? Identity politics is everything to a hard-wired liberal like you.
Ha, ha, cheesy Clinton!
‘Impactful’...?
And Curie killed herself in her research. Go figure.
This is a laugh. Someone told her to say that. She is dumb..even Hillary’s people know it.
ummm, exactly in which field is Chelsea Clinton a leader?
Probably wasn’t a muslim in the photo either. They really haven’t contributed anything good to society.
Wow, so they actually have a chairperson for vice.
Who would expect that?
Chelsea? She couldn't lead someone to the restroom.
See, these are people who are trained to just look for things to be offended by. Avoiding these people as much as possible really maked life beautiful, and gives you an imperfect idea of what Heaven is going to be like. That kind of crap is not going to be going on there.
Yet another corrupt Clinton chick getting in line to claim what is rightfully hers, aided and abetted by the brain-dead progs at Time magazine.
Give it up. America HATES the Clintons.
Who is Chelsea Clinton that I should care what she thinks?
She’s a nothing daughter of two nothing criminals.
May be Webb would care.
Chelsea has another picture sitting on her bedroom dresser, of Web Hubbell.
Some people theorize that the dementia tweet is about her establishing a cause to run for office.
This photograph deal is another example. I bet she never saw this photograph before someone handed it to her for this article
Dumb b....
All that matters to them is identity politics.
It is the single most destructive device in American, perhaps World, history.
Isn’t she really a Hubbell? I wish someone would do a DNA test.
