Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

OSCAR nominee Helena Bonham Carter, decked out in a Victorian period costume, poses for the photographer Annie Leibovitz at the Freud Museum in Hampstead, north London.

The 31-year-old actress who has starred in 17 films, including Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, has won an Oscar nomination for her latest film role, as Kate Croy in Iain Softley's adaptation of Henry James's novel The Wings of the Dove.

Leibovitz catches the quintessential Englishness of Ms Bonham Carter in this photograph - The Victorian - which appears with a host of others taken by the celebrity photographer and featuring in April's "Hollywood 1998" edition of the magazine Vanity Fair.
