<b>A delightful collection of interviews with the beloved Julia Child--The French Chef, author, and television personality who revolutionized home cooking in 20th century America</b> <p/>This delightful collection of interviews with The French Chef <b>Julia Child</b> traces her life from her first stab at a writing career fresh out of college; to D.C., Sri Lanka, and Kunming where she worked for the Office of Strategic Services (now the CIA); to Paris where she and her husband Paul, then a member of the State Department, lived after World War II, and where Child attended the famous cooking school Le Cordon Bleu. From there, Child catapulted to fame--first with the publication of <i>Mastering the Art of French Cooking</i> in 1961 and the launch of her home cooking show, The French Chef in 1963. In this volume of carefully selected interviews, Child's charm, guile, and no-nonsense advice are on full, irresistibly delicious display.
