Biography of Julia Child.

One of the most beloved figures in twentieth-century America, Julia Child - the buoyant "French Chef" - taught millions of Americans to cook with confidence and eat with pleasure. Unlike the great cooking teachers who preceded her, Child won her audience through the revolutionary medium of television, where her occasional disasters and brilliant recoveries were legendary. Yet, eery step of the way, she was teaching carefully crafted lessons about ingredients, culinary technique, and why good home cooking still matters.
