Barbra Streisand's Influence On Hollywood

Imagine if everyone doubted you because of your gender. Especially if your field of work. To not have the same opportunities that someone else gets. This is something that my hero Barbra Streisand knows very well. She is an amazing actress, comedian, singer but she wanted more, she had a passion for directing and when she did direct her first film “Yentl” it was a huge hit and yet she was not given as much respect during filming as a man would.

She is the most brave, talented and strong person I know of. She doesn't let others words cut her down but make her feel more inspired to speak up about unfair and sexist things that she feels that are not right. She even risks how people in her workplace view her. She was brought up in a very judgmental household and yet is so successful. There are people who will doubt you but she has reminded me that if you stand up for what you believe in you can still change the
