Update: 2022-04-212
Description
Judith Jones of Knopf was one of the most legendary editors around. Not only did she shepherd Julia Child’s masterpiece, Mastering the Art of French Cooking, early in her career, but she also rescued The Diary of Anne Frank from the slush pile as a young assistant in the Paris office of Doubleday. Host Kerry Diamond talks to Julia’s Fiona Glascott, who plays Judith, and Judith Light, who plays Judith’s boss, the imperious Blanche Knopf. In the second half of the show, Francis Lam, cookbook expert, editor in chief of Clarkson Potter, and host of The Splendid Table, talks about the realities of being an editor today.
