  "account": "Gloria Steinem, a prominent figure in second-wave feminism, passed away at the age of 92. Despite her numerous accomplishments, she often emphasized her passion for her work. In 2018, she told The Cut that while most people must work to live, she lived to work. Steinem described her life as having 12 pots boiling over, each representing a different project or responsibility. At the time, she was involved in various activities, including advising Vice Media, producing a film adaptation of her memoir, and remaining active in social activism. In 2024, Vogue magazine interviewed Steinem on her 90th birthday, asking her what she hoped to celebrate at her 100th. She expressed hope for a reduction in emphasis on race, ethnicity, and gender, as well as a shift towards recognizing shared human individuality. Steinem also noted her excitement about getting older, stating, \"I don't care about getting old, except I love it here, and I don't want to leave.\"",
