History
Tap the gear icon above to manage new release emails.
I'm a food writer, recovering attorney and certified barbecue judge who lives in Denver, CO. I am the current executive director of the Colorado Council of Churches. As such, I'm the first African American and the first layperson to hold that position. I previously worked in politics: first, in the White House as a special assistant to President Bill Clinton; then as the general counsel and outreach director of the Bell Policy Center--a progressive think tank in Colorado, and then as a senior policy analyst for Colorado governor Bill Ritter Jr. I'm active in my community, and I've served on a number of boards, including the Southern Foodways Alliance. My first book, "Soul Food: The Surprising Story of an American Cuisine, One Plate at a Time" won the James Beard Foundation Award for Scholarship and Reference in 2014. My next book, "The President’s Kitchen Cabinet: The Story of the African Americans Who Have Fed Our First Families, from the Washingtons to the Obamas" will be published on President's Day, 2017.
