In 2010, Mary Kay Henry became the first woman elected to lead SEIU, after more than thirty years of organizing workers. By 2015, she was named one of the 100 most creative leaders by Fast Company magazine and was included in the top 50 visionaries reshaping American politics by Politico magazine for SEIU’s innovative leadership in propelling the fight for living wages embodied in the historic movement known as the Fight for $15 and a Union. She was elected a Fellow of the American Çï¿ûÊÓƵ of Arts and Sciences in 2021.
