Joan Nathan considers food through the lenses of history, culture, and tradition. She regularly contributes to The New York Times and Tablet Magazine and is the author of 11 award-winning cookbooks. Her most recent book is King Solomon’s Table: A Culinary Exploration of Jewish Cooking from around the World, which was published by Alfred A. Knopf in April 2017. Nathan’s work preserves the heritage of Jewish and other ethnic cooking and encourages new traditions to take shape.

In 1994, Nathan’s Jewish Cooking in America won both the James Beard Award for the best American cookbook and the IACP/Julia Child Cookbook of the Year Award. The same James Beard Award was later bestowed on her 2005 cookbook The New American Cooking. An earlier work, An American Folklife Cookbook, was given the R.T. French Tastemaker Award in 1985 for American cooking. Nathan was on the 1998 “Forward 50” list of the 50 most influential Jews.

Her culinary talents translated easily to television. In 2000 her PBS series Jewish Cooking in American with Joan Nathan was nominated for the James Beard Award for Best National Television Food Show. She has made guest appearances on many programs, including the Today Show, Good Morning America, The Martha Stewart Show, and All Things Considered.
