About This Cook

I'm the food editor at Sunset magazine. Before Sunset, I was the executive editor at Saveur, and before that I worked at the late, lamented Gourmet. I edited The Sunset Cookbook (Oxmoor, 2010), was the main author of The One-Block Feast (Ten Speed Press, 2011), and edited Sunset's Edible Garden Cookbook (Oxmoor, 2012). I love cooking and never get tired of it—even though it's my job.
