Rachael Ray was born into cooking. My first vivid memory is watching Mom in a restaurant kitchen. She was flipping something with a spatula. I tried to copy her Rachael Ray and ended up grilling my right thumb! I was 3 or 4, says Rachael. Everyone on both sides of my family cooks. Rachael's maternal grandfather grew and cooked everything that his family of 12 Speech Topics needed for sustenance, and her dad's family was steeped in the food-rich traditions of Louisiana. The Ray family was also in the food business, owners of a family restaurant in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Eventually the family relocated to Entertainment New York, where her mother went to work as the food supervisor for a chain of Creativity upstate restaurants. Chef Rachael's career started at Macy's Marketplace in New York, first at the candy Celebrity counter and then as the manager of the fresh foods department. After Macy's, Ray helped to open Agata & Valentina, the prestigious New York gourmet marketplace, where she was the store manager and buyer. Though this New York City food fast track was exciting, Rachael decided she wanted to return to the lifestyle of the Adirondacks.

Rachael Ray Biography According to Rachael Ray, She Grew up in Food
Press Contact: Seth Hyman Phone: 646-336-3683; E-mail: [email protected] *High-res images, show footage, and interviews available upon request. Rachael Ray Biography According to Rachael Ray, she grew up in food. “My first vivid memory is watching my mom in a restaurant kitchen. She was flipping something with a spatula. I tried to copy her and ended up grilling my right thumb! I was three or four,” says Rachael, who insists that cooking is a way of life she was simply born into. “Everyone on both sides of my family cooks.” Rachael has parlayed that birthright into a wildly successful career as a syndicated television star, an iconic Food Network television personality, bestselling cookbook author, Founder and Editorial Director of her own lifestyle magazine and Founder of the Yum-o! organization. Rachael’s hugely successful syndicated daytime program, Rachael Ray, launched in the fall of 2006. Showcasing Rachael’s warmth, energy and boundless curiosity, the show — produced by CBS Television Distribution in association with Harpo Productions, Scripps Networks and Watch Entertainment — invites viewers to experience life the Rachael Ray way. Credited with getting America back in the kitchen with her easy approach to cooking, Rachael takes the same philosophy — finding simple solutions to everyday problems— beyond the kitchen and into all aspects of the show. Growing up in a family steeped in culinary tradition, Rachael was exposed to a wide array of cooking techniques, learning lessons from her maternal grandfather who was raised in the traditions of Louisiana. The Ray family owned several restaurants on Cape Cod, Mass., before relocating to upstate New York, where her mother worked as the food supervisor for a restaurant chain.

More than ever, corporations are expected to step up, whether it’s contributing to the elimination of social injustices that have plagued our country, keeping employees safe and healthy during the COVID-19 Pandemic, or fighting to curb global greenhouse gas emissions. Meredith has heard that call, and the many actions we are taking across the social responsibility spectrum are outlined in this report. We recognize the need for our business to be socially responsible, as well as a competitive and productive player in the marketplace. Just as we are devoted to providing our consumers with inspiration and valued content, we want them to feel great about the company behind the brands they love and trust. At Meredith, we promote the health and well-being of our employees; implement continuous improvements to make our operating systems, products and facilities more environmentally friendly; and take actions to create a just and inclusive environment for all.

Ben Ford—Chef for the February 15, 2016 ASEAN Summit Robert William “Bobby” Flay—Chef for the 2013 US/China Summit
Ben Ford—Chef for the February 15, 2016 ASEAN Summit Chef Ben ford is a husband, father, chef, author, self-described adventurer, craftsman, and historian. 1 As a young man he spent a year abroad at the University of Dijon in France. After spending time with the locals, he became appreciative of their “European routine of going to the market daily to buy fresh produce and meat. He appreciated the Slow Food Movement, noting that the time and effort it took to cook had a truly positive effect on the end result.” 2 When he returned to the U.S. he studied at the California Culinary Academy in San Francisco. After graduation moved back to Los Angeles and started working as a sous chef at Eberhard Mueller’s Opus in Santa Monica. In 2004, he opened his first restaurant, Ford’s Filling Station in Tulsa, OK, where he experimented on making enjoyable, sustainable food more accessible to the average American. As a self-proclaimed “alchemist, celebrating head 2 tail & root 2 flower”3, his locally grown/farmed, or farm to table, approach to cooking soon became his trademark. Ford’s Filling Station was then relocated on two accounts, once in 2006 to Culver City, CA, and then in 2014 to the JW Marriott at L.A. Live. In 2014, Ben wrote Taming the Feast: Ben Ford's Field Guide to Adventurous Cooking, which gave the reader step by step instructions in outdoor cooking including instructions on roasting a whole pig (head to tail). Chef Ben Ford donates his time and talents to a variety of organizations throughout the country.
