WARMING UP JULIA CHILD The Remarkable Figures Who Shaped a Legend

Ann Richardson narrates the story of Julia Child as she developed recipes, found an editor and publisher, and eventually produced her popular television series "Mastering the Art of French Cooking." Subtitled "The Remarkable Figures Who Shaped a Legend," the audiobook follows Child's ten-year path to fame, all of which is recounted in Richardson's bright voice. Richardson fluidly shifts her intonation, clearly differentiating narrative from letters, memos, and diaries. Through ups and downs, successes and failures, listeners learn, via Richardson's steady performance, about this remarkable chef who conquered French food, brought the complex cuisine to reading and TV-watching audiences, and became a household name.
