Femme Fatale of Food May
Julia Child 1912 – 2004
What can be said that hasn’t been said about the legendary Julia Child? As a child, I remember watching her practical culinary instruction and fun-loving chatter on her PBS series. I have looked up to her as a culinary inspiration ever since, even naming my firstborn Julia. She is credited for introducing French cuisine to America and making it much more approachable to folks on this side of the pond. Her debut cookbook, Mastering the Art of French Cooking, is filled with lesser-known gems worth exploring. I’m grateful to own a first edition, and co-author Simone Beck signed my second volume (pictured).
A couple of lesser-known fun facts about JC: She became interested in food while living in China and working as a spy. Before her death at 91, her last meal was a homemade French onion soup. Lastly, and my favorite, she credited her long life to “red meat and gin.”

Nora Daza 1928 – 2013
Sweet, sour, and salty—these bold flavors define Filipino cuisine. Beyond taste, its presentation is equally striking.
A culinary icon, Nora Daza starred in numerous cooking shows and authored six cookbooks. Her expertise spanned Filipino, French, Chinese, Spanish, and American cuisines. She launched her first restaurant in Manila, featuring French cuisine, then introduced Filipino food to Paris by opening Aux Iles Philippines, run by her eldest son at 22. In 1975, she opened Manhattan’s first Filipino fine-dining restaurant.
Her children followed in her footsteps—Chef Sandy Daza became a well-known chef, while her daughter, Nina, became editor of Appetite magazine.
Fun Facts about Nora: Let’s Cook with Nora (1965) was a popular Filipino wedding gift and remains a top Filipino recipe collection. & She earned a Master’s in Restaurant Management from Cornell University in 1956.
Femme Fatale of Food July
Martha Stewart 1941 –
Before becoming a household name, Martha Stewart was learning the art of home cooking in a Polish-American household in Nutley, New Jersey. Surrounded by garden-fresh ingredients and family recipes, she developed a deep appreciation for food made from scratch and served with style. Though she started her career on Wall Street, it was in the kitchen where she truly found her calling—transforming everyday meals into elegant experiences.
Martha’s love for cooking, entertaining, and turning the every day into the extraordinary grew into a full-blown culinary empire. From her bestselling cookbooks and Emmy-winning TV shows to her line of cookware and gourmet products, she’s inspired generations to embrace the art of home cooking with flair.
Fun Fact: Martha Stewart was the first self-made female billionaire in the U.S.
