001 Hall Rockefeller on Money, Power, and Painting Women Back In

Our very first guest is none other than Hall Rockefeller, the fearless founder of Less Than Half, a platform dedicated to amplifying women artists and correcting the still-ridiculous imbalance in representation in museums and wherever art is shown and traded.

Hall and I go deep into discussion on how we value (or undervalue) art, and why we have such a huge lack of representation of women artists everywhere. It’s not just about art, it’s about the state of women everywhere, and it’s a perfect kickoff to what we’re building with this show: honest conversations about what makes women richer in mind, body, and bank account.
