Rachael Ray

About this book

In the course of a few short years, Rachael Ray went from living the small-town life in upstate New York to being one of America's biggest and brightest TV stars. When she first moved to New York City in her early twenties, Rachael got a job working at the Macy's candy counter. From there, she became a buyer for gourmet grocery stores and started teaching people how to make great meals in record-breaking time. Discovered by the local news in Albany, NY, and later by the Today Show, Rachael eventually landed a deal with the Food Network to host a show called 30-Minute Meals. In this in-depth portrait, get a behind-the-scenes look at the life and career of this quirky, self-made "foodie," whose easily recognized brand now includes several Food Network shows, her own magazine, myriad cookbooks, a daily talk show, and even a non-profit organization that helps kids develop positive relationships with food. Featuring candid interviews with Rachael, her family, and well-known TV personalities, Bio presents the inspiring story of Rachael Ray. - Container.
