May 10th is the first annual 50/50 Day, with thousands of organizations, companies, schools, museums, libraries and homes — anywhere people already gather — in a global conversation about what it will take to get to a more gender-balanced world in all sectors of society: business, politics, culture, home, and more. Below, founder Tiffany Shlain interviews Forward editor in chief Jane Eisner about her life and work.
