Mastering The Art Of Julia Child

The team behind Julia, the HBO Max Original series based on the life of Julia Child, and the team at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History have two very different jobs. One gets to share a creative retelling of the culinary icon’s life. The other must remain faithful to every detail. In the first half of this episode, host Kerry Diamond talks to Executive Producers Erwin Stoff and Erica Lipez about poetic license and how it applies to Julia. In the second half, she checks in with Paula Johnson, food history curator. Paula is part of the team that acquired Julia’s Cambridge kitchen for the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History and shares why this American treasure was worth preserving.  Learn more about your ad choices.
