American History (After Hours): The French Chef, American Style

Join Alex Prud'homme (co-author with Julia Child of My Life in France), food historian Sara Franklin, and Smithsonian food curator Paula Johnson as they discuss the renewal of American food culture after The French Chef. After the talk, enjoy delicious food and drinks and explore Julia Child's Kitchen as part of the exhibition FOOD: Transforming the American Table 1950-2000.
