Madeleine Albright

Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright made headlines in 2013 when she finally joined Twitter. “First of 3 female SecStates – last to join Twitter. Better late than never!” she tweeted on September 23. The septuagenarian’s message was accompanied by a picture of her wearing a brooch that featured a bird and the word “TWEET.” Since then, Albright has racked up over 41,000 followers and posts regular updates about her work as the Council on Foreign Relations’ current board director, as well as tidbits about her personal life. Albright is the Mortara Distinguished Professor Of Diplomacy at Washington, D.C.-based Georgetown University.
