OWN Time Of Essence Exclusive Clip:
In an exclusive clip shared with BOSSIP, we see a recap of the alleged tensions between Susan L. Taylor and Monique Greenwood. Taylor was ESSENCE’s Editor In Chief from 1981 through 2000. and Greenwood was her successor.
Previous ESSENCE editor Cori Murray recalls the numerous comparisons that were being made between Greenwood and Taylor and her thoughts are echoed by previous ESSENCE staffer Harriette Cole.
“Susan Taylor was still at the magazine and I can’t imagine what it would be like for Monique to attempt to institute her vision when the visionary for ESSENCE was still in the room,” says Cole.
Taylor and Greenwood both appear in Time Of Essence and share their respective stories.
According to Greenwood, there was a time when Taylor called her “arrogant” to her face, but despite that, Taylor insists that there were never any catfights between them.
“I know that people have made up stories about catfights at ESSENCE,” says Taylor. “Never had one, but if I saw something and felt that I needed to express it, I did.”
