Description
Doris Cooper, VP and Associate Publisher at Clarkson Potter, is the encourager-in-chief behind some of the most exciting food books this season: Alice Waters' memoir, Alex Guarnaschelli's The Home Cook, Melissa Clark's Dinner in an Instant. Listen to this episode of Speaking Broadly to learn how curiosity fueled Cooper's rise from xerox-intern-secretary to food world tastemaker and strategist. Though enormously successful today, there were challenges along the way like when she was laid off when she was a young senior editor. To stay interesting, says Cooper, "you need struggle."

Baker Bon Vivant: Allison Robicelli: Allison Robicelli is best known for the insanely decadent desserts that she developed with her husband Matt for their Brooklyn bakery, Robicelli's. Their cupcakes like the Nutella Lasagna became viral hits and their book, Robicelli's: A Love Story with Cupcakes was on a zillion best-seller lists. In the last year, though, the couple closed their shop, moved to Baltimore, and hit the pause button. Allison shares stories of near super-human resilience: thriving after the financial crisis squelched her business, tending to Matt through repeated hospital stays, finding an outlet for anguish and joy through writing. by Speaking Broadly
