One of my favorite writers (and editors I dreamed of working with) Ruth Reichl has been named Editor at Large at Random House. She had been Editor in Chief of Gourmet for many years and was the original food critic on both coasts. Her books are like gourmet meals themselves and I have read all of them, sometimes twice. Food writing is one of my favorite things to indulge in. The New Yorker Food Issue is unbelievable and Ruth Reichl got to do that on a monthly basis. I am excited to read her forthcoming books that she has spent the past month working on at the MacDowell Colony in New Hampshire. Apparently she has a memoir of her years at Conde Nast coming out as well a cookbook, “The Tao of Ruth” and her first novel, “Delicious!” I can’t wait to devour all of them.
