Data Insights on Gender Representation: Analyzing the Book and Music Industries

Year: 2024

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: The entertainment industry has been historically dominated by men, which motivates growing recognition and advocacy for improved gender diversity and equality. We present a study on gender representation in the book and music industries by analyzing awarded authors and hit song artists. Through Data Science, we uncover patterns and trends that beg for a more balanced and diverse portrayal of gender in creative expressions and offer insights to foster inclusivity, diversity, and equitable opportunities in such a domain.
