Prompt
Create a realistic image of a middle-aged American woman with a professional and approachable demeanor, sitting at a desk with a laptop and papers, surrounded by books and a few notes on pop culture, television, and film. She is wearing attire suitable for a journalist and opinion columnist, such as a blouse and a blazer. The background should resemble a well-lit, modern office or a cozy study, reflecting her work as a culture critic and writer for The Washington Post. Incorporate subtle hints of her educational background, such as a Yale University logo or a classic literature book on her shelf. Capture her as a thoughtful and engaged writer, with a warm and intelligent expression.
