"Inspiring and engaging. . . . It's impossible not to love Julia Child." --Anita Lo, The Wall Street Journal
"Joyous . . . poignant. . . . There was no one quite like Julia Child, who changed the world with her wit and whisks." --Minneapolis Star Tribune "Child's voice comes through clearly in this affectionate account of the second half of her long career." --Richmond Times-Dispatch "[An] intricately and intriguingly detailed biography of [Prud'homme's] delicious, good-naturedly opinionated great-aunt, Julia Child." --Mimi Sheraton, The Daily Beast "[The French Chef in America] highlights flavors and philosophies that fueled [Julia Child's] style of cooking, the legacy of which would go on to change and shape the way we eat today." --Nylon "A warm, nuanced celebration of 'Our Lady of the Ladle' . . . . [Prud'homme] delights with behind-the-scenes details of Child's later life in the U.S. after years in France. Through extensive conversations with many who worked with Child and those she's inspired, including Emeril Lagasse and Sara Moulton, Prud'homme explores [Child's story]. . . . With Prud'hommes's gentle hand, readers see the truth of Child behind her playful persona." --Publishers WeeklyIn this enchanting follow-up to My Life in France—Julia Child’s beloved and best-selling memoir—her co-author and grandnephew, Alex Prud’homme, chronicles Julia’s rise from home cook to the first celebrity chef. While at the beginning of her career Julia’s name was synonymous with French cooking, she fashioned a new identity in the 1970s, reinventing and Americanizing herself. Here we see her dealing with difficult colleagues and the challenges of fame, and ultimately using her newfound celebrity to create what would become a totally new type of food television. The story of a remarkable woman who found her true voice in middle age and profoundly shaped our relationship with food, The French Chef in America is a fascinating look at the second act of a unique culinary icon.
