Personality Profile For Susan Sontag

Susan Sontag

The following is a personality profile of Susan Sontag based on her work.

Susan Sontag is shrewd, skeptical and can be perceived as indirect.

She is laid-back, she appreciates a relaxed pace in life. She is imaginative as well: she has a wild imagination. But, Susan Sontag is also compromising: she is comfortable using every trick in the book to get what she wants.

More than most people, her choices are driven by a desire for self-expression.

Considers helping others to guide a large part of what she does: she thinks it is important to take care of the people around him. She is also relatively unconcerned with tradition: she cares more about making her own path than following what others have done.
