When Beyoncé stepped onto a stage for the first time at the age of seven, her career was just beginning. Over the following decades, she would skyrocket to a level of fame only few artists can claim.

Beyoncé: Renaissance Woman chronicles Beyoncé’s life and career, from the early days of Destiny’s Child to her genre-busting album Cowboy Carter, and everything in between. The record-setting Grammy-winner has done it all—writing, acting, performing, and producing. And her dedication to social justice and philanthropy has impacted millions. Beyoncé’s commitment to promoting her culture, exploring every aspect of her art, and making the world a better place makes her more than a global music icon—Queen Bey is a true renaissance woman.
