Damarr Brown was raised in Harvey by his mother, aunt and grandmother. To help keep him out of trouble, Brown said, the three women would often pull Brown into the kitchen. Before long, he needed no persuasion.
“Once my mother figured out I enjoyed it, she leaned into it,” said Brown. “We watched the Emeril Lagasse Live show together, she would buy me ingredients and challenge me to make things. She made it really fun for me, she really encouraged me to go on that journey.”
