A former professional chef, Sally Schneider
is a food stylist and writer, whose work has appeared in Vogue, Elle, Saveur, Self,
Working Woman, and Health magazines, as well as The New York Times and The Los Angeles Times. She was a contributing editor at Food & Wine and the
author of its monthly "Well Being" column. Her first cookbook, The Art of Low-Calorie Cooking, won the James Beard award in 1991. A piece for Saveur won her a second James Beard award in 1995. A New Way to Cook
won her a third in 2001. Ms. Schneider lives in New York City.
Copies of her book will be available for purchase and autographing at our luncheon.
Most recently executive chef of the Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills, Carrie Nahabedian
returned to her native Chicago two years ago to open NAHA.
Her impressive resume spans more than 24 years and is peppered with names like the Ritz-Carlton, Le Perroquet, Le Français, Sinclair's and the Four Seasons Hotel, where she served as executive chef for three company properties.
Chef Carrie's cooking style is a combination of her Armenian roots and a California lifestyle that she enjoyed during her years as executive chef for the Four Season's Santa Barbara and Beverly Hills properties.
