About this listen

In 2001 Paula Johnson, Director of the American Food History Project at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History, and colleagues traveled to Cambridge, MA to visit Julia Child as she was planning to relocate to California. She oversaw the installation of the Julia Child kitchen at the Smithsonian. And what began as a temporary exhibit has survived a move within the museum and continues to be a popular exhibit.

The exhibit is so popular that it has its own Fact Sheet on the Smithsonian website.

Paula has written a book about the entire experience with wonderful anecdotes about the journey to where the exhibit/kitchen is today.

Listen to our conversation. It’s on Tip of the Tongue.
