In last week's issue of New York magazine, two photos of Sen. Dianne Feinstein are laid out side by side.
In the first, from 1971, she is smiling broadly, hair bobbed, wearing pearls — the first female president of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. She's about 38 years old.
On the facing page is Feinstein today, half a century later, in almost the same pose and pearls, but now her face is deeply lined, her shoulders hunched, her expression substantially less joyous. She looks irritated. The caption: "The oldest sitting U.S. senator."
