Television that Tastes Good:
Julia Child and the History of Early Food TV
With the debut of THE FRENCH CHEF television show in 1963, Julia Child became one of the key cultural icons of the American sixties. By examining the pre-history of the cooking show before THE FRENCH CHEF, this paper attempts to account for the difference that Child brought to the genre -- and to television pedagogy more generally.
