"In our annual TIME 100 issue, we tell 100 stories of individual influence," editor Nancy Gibbs said. "But taken together, these stories are an anthem to interaction, the convergence that occurs when you harmonize a good idea. The technology that connects us also connects our worlds, of art and science and business and politics."

On the political side, the list includes: Barack Obama, Jeb Bush, Hillary Clinton, David and Charles Koch, Bob Corker, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Elizabeth Warren and Mitch McConnell. Writers featured are Kirsten Gillibrand, John Boehner, Rand Paul, Hillary Clinton, Antonin Scalia, Lamar Alexander, John Lewis, Louise Slaughter and Barack Obama.
