I have compiled 30 Young Professionals that demonstrate just how our youngest generation is changing the world. Most of these examples are names that you might not have heard before, but each one should be impressive in his or her own right! This document is the first in a series that starts our hero project.

Before we continue with our 30 Young Professionals, let's celebrate the work Entertainment Weekly and Four Colors Blog have done with this Superhero Bracket. Finally, March Madness can help us solve the burning question of who is the greatest superhero of all time. We will do this bracket in class to prepare for our 30 Young Professional bracket.

Let's now study real life heroes of a similar generation-----ie, our 30 Young Professionals! We will reduce our 30 Young Professionals from the previous document down to just one winner! Here is a copy of the new bracket that we will use for our Young Professionals. May the Young Professional best role model win.
