Edward Enninful, the star fashion editor, reinvented British Vogue when he became the first male editor in chief of British Vogue in its 106-year history. He has now written a memoir, "A Visible Man," out Sept. 6, which he describes as the simple tale of “a boy from Ghana making his way in a racist, classist industry.” Enninful is also the first Black editor to be at the helm of Vogue in Britain or America, touted as someone who could someday succeed Anna Wintour. The 50-year-old said he did not have the customary privileged pedigree but did have “a calling”: to drag fashion magazines into the future. “Even though people knew me as a fashion insider, the newspapers saw me as an outsider because I was Black, because I was gay, because I was working class, because I didn’t go to the schools” they considered right, he said in an interview with @nytimesdowd.
