SPECIAL EVENTS

America Eats
November 4, 2009
Chitlin Feasts. Fish Fries. Box Supper Socials. Food rituals bring people together — especially in hard times. Resurrecting a Depression-era writers’ project that dispatched writers across America to document the roots of American regional cuisine, renowned food writer Pat Willard re-traced the steps of writers like Eudora Welty and Ralph Ellison to discover how those traditions are being carried forward today. Willard will serve up stories as they are meant to be heard — over a full plate at a family-style buffet. Pat Willard, author of Pie Every Day, A Soothing Broth and Secrets of Saffron, is a food columnist for Brooklyn Bridge magazine. Secrets of Saffron was nominated for Best Literary Cookbook by the International Association of Culinary Professionals in 2002. She lives in Brooklyn, NY with her husband and two sons.
