  • Copy of Julia Child; Born in Pasadena, Califo
    Julia Child; born in Pasadena, California as Julia Carolyn McWilliams August 15, 1912. Julia Child spent her early years in California where she grew up and attended school. Julia Child's first position out of college was with W. & J. Sloane as a copywriter in New York City. A few year in 1937 after her debut on Madison Avenue, Child's moved back to California, where she continued to write and work in advertising. Julia Child met her husband Paul Child, while serving with the OSS (Office of Strategic Services the forerunner of today's CIA) in 1944. Paul and Julia were married in 1946 and soon after he joined the US Foreign Service. Paul Child had a taste for fine food, probably due in part to living in Paris prior to meeting Julia. As a employee of the US Foreign Service, Paul was sent to Paris in 1948, where he introduced his new bride to sophisticated French Cuisine. Julia described her first meal in Rouen, France as "a culinary revelation". Paul's work at the embassy would keep him away from Julia most of the day, creating a void and desire to offset her boredom. So, Julia began to enrolled in many different classes. Eventually she enrolled in the famous Le Cordon Bleu cooking school. It was no easy task at first, being in a school of only men at the time, she had to learn to love cooking as much as she loved eating. Julia Child's graduation from Le Cordon Bleu created an opportunity for her to meet the two women that would become co-authors of her first cookbook "Mastering The Art of French Cooking"; Simon Beck and Louisette Bertholle.

Branch ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract ERIN L. BRANCH: Transforming Tastes: M.F.K. Fisher, Julia Child, Alice Waters, and the Revision of American Food Rhetorics (Under the direction of Jane Danielewicz and Jordynn Jack) Transforming Tastes: M.F.K. Fisher, Julia Child, Alice Waters, and the Revision of American Food Rhetorics examines rhetorical alternatives to the rhetorics of quantification and science that have long dominated American food discourse. In the late nineteenth century, reformers’ efforts to professionalize homemaking led to the development of home economics as an academic and professional field. This new field sought legitimacy by conferring scientific status on domestic work and by persuading the public that the nation’s moral health depended on women keeping house according to modern methods. Almost simultaneously, the nascent field of nutrition science began disseminating research via government-sponsored publications that offered dietary advice in the form of numbers (e.g., of servings, calories, etc.). As American food discourse became a scientific, data-driven enterprise, this field meant to empower women instead marginalized everyday women’s practices by validating only knowledge acquired through legitimate institutional channels.

  • Interview with Julia Child
    Library of Congress Interview with Julia Child The Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Foreign Affairs Oral History Project Foreign Service Spouse Series JULIA CHILD Interviewed by: Jewell Fenzi Initial interview date: November 7, 1991 Q: This is Jewell Fenzi on Thursday, November 7, 1991. I am interviewing Julia Child at my home. Julia Child has come to Washington for a promotion of her latest book, The Way to Cook, and has kindly agreed to share an hour of her time with me this morning. CHILD: When I was in the Foreign Service, they didn't really pay attention to wives at all. A lot of them never learned the language, or did anything. Q: And that was 1944? CHILD: We [reference to Paul Child, her husband] were in World War II, we were in the OSS (Office of Strategic Services) and we met in Ceylon, or Sri Lanka, it was Ceylon then. Then we went up to China and we were there when the bomb dropped (The atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima August 6, 1945.). Then we came back to Washington and Paul's OSS Department — they called it visual presentation, maps, diagrams, war rooms and things like that — became the US Information Agency. So we were there in Washington. Paul had spent a lot of his young manhood in France and spoke beautiful French, really practically bi-lingual. When they were setting up the USIS (United States Information Service) in Paris he was asked to go over which was of course wonderful for us. Outside of the Far East, I had only been to Tijuana (Mexico).

THE FRENCH CHEF AND THE COLD WAR: JULIA CHILD AND THE MASK OF CONTAINED DOMESTICITY A Thesis presented in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of English The University of Mississippi by HILLARY ANN HAMBLEN May 2011 Copyright Hillary Ann Hamblen 2011 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Most scholarly studies and even general personal reflections about Julia Child portray her as a figure that changed the face of cooking, cookbooks, and cooking television for audiences of the late twentieth and twenty first centuries. While this is true, many of these studies and reflections do not acknowledge Child’s ability to change mainstream ideas by conforming to some of them. While Child radicalized perceptions toward food and those who cook, she also represented a domestic woman and a wife. While Child’s politics were indeed liberal, for the most part, her lifestyle was actually quite moderate.
