As the first gay Asian man to host a national daytime talk show, FABLife, Joe Zee has reason to look back on 2015 as a personal watershed. "Breaking that barrier has meant so much to me, especially after having been told 'no' so many times by so many people along the way," says Zee, who hosts the show with a panel that includes Tyra Banks. The former creative director of Elle has also been celebrating his first year as editor in chief of Yahoo Style, as well as the publication of his first book, That's What Fashion Is, a reflection on lessons learned in his life and career.
