9. Ava DuVernay
DuVernay proves that women are efficient multitaskers. She first began as the founder of a public relations firm and went on to direct movies that make a difference. From directing the politically fraught movie Selma to presenting a documentary on racial inequality in The 13th (a movie that was also Oscar-nominated). The powerhouse has done it all. With A Wrinkle in Time, she became the first black woman to direct a 100 million-plus live-action venture.
