JAMES BEARD: AMERICA'S FIRST FOODIE
"In the beginning there was Beard."
Directed by Beth Federici
Food in the 21st century has become much more than “meat and potatoes” and canned soup casseroles.” Chefs have gained celebrity status; recipes and exotic ingredients, once impossible to find, are now just a mouse click away; and the country's major cities are better known for their gastronomy than their art galleries.
