Throughout, the focus is on key recipes that form the backbone of French cookery and lend themselves to an infinite number of elaborations—bound to increase anyone’s culinary repertoire.ABOUT THE AUTHORJulia Child, a native of California and a Smith College graduate; Simone (“Simca”) Beck, French-born and -educated; and Louisette Bertholle, half French and half American, educated in both countries, represented an even blending of the two backgrounds and were singularly equipped to write about French cooking for Americans. Child studied at Paris’s famous Cordon Bleu, and all three authors worked under various distinguished French chefs. In 1951 they started their own cooking school in Paris, L’Ecole des Trois Gourmandes, at the same time that Mastering the Art of French Cooking was taking shape. After that, Simone Beck published two cookbooks, Simca’s Cuisine in 1972 and New Menus from Simca’s Cuisine in 1979, and she continued to teach cooking in France until her death in 1991. Louisette Bertholle also had several cookery books published. In 1963, Boston’s WGBH launched The French Chef television series, which made Julia Child a national celebrity, earning her the Peabody Award in 1965 and an Emmy in 1966. Several public television shows and numerous cookbooks followed. She died in 2004. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/washington/november-cookbook-club-mastering-the-art-of-french-cooking-by-julia-child/100001755304536119 - **Event Categories**: art, food-drinks, literary-art, meetups - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 7.73, max: 51.13, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Washington - **state**: DC - **country**: United States - **location**: Bold Fork Books - **lat**: 38.928463 - **long**: -77.03751600000001 - **full address**: Bold Fork Books, 3064 Mount Pleasant Street Northwest, Washington, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: November Cookbook Club: MASTERING THE ART OF FRENCH COOKING by Julia Child - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/6b71b6cf2f21c8f172b4a8e62781b6b56c7b73e77f1168c41f64b3e0c692aec7-rimg-w1200-h600-dcf7f8eb-gmir.jpg?v=1760952916 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is November Cookbook Club: MASTERING THE ART OF FRENCH COOKING by Julia Child being held? - **A:** November Cookbook Club: MASTERING THE ART OF FRENCH COOKING by Julia Child takes place on Thu, 20 Nov, 2025 at 07:00 pm to Thu, 20 Nov, 2025 at 08:30 pm at Bold Fork Books, 3064 Mount Pleasant Street Northwest, Washington, United States. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for November Cookbook Club: MASTERING THE ART OF FRENCH COOKING by Julia Child? - **A:** Ticket prices for November Cookbook Club: MASTERING THE ART OF FRENCH COOKING by Julia Child range from USD 8 to USD 51 depending on the ticket type.
