Known for her best-selling cookbooks that made the art of French cooking accessible to cooks of all calibres, Julia Child's impact on the world is hard to deny. Introducing culinary delights to the everyday American from the comfort of her (enviable) kitchen, she provided delicious recipes for all, from Coq au Vin to chocolate mousse.
Her infamous show, The French Chef, kick-started her TV career, making the art of fine dining feel easily attainable for all. With a passion for food and anything French, Julia's love for classic cookery translated both on and off screen, introducing the world of European cuisine (with a side of her signature wit and charm) to housewives across the country.
