Event Details

Join Food Network’s Ted Allen for his virtual interview of Tucson’s own John Birdsall about his new book, The Man Who Ate Too Much—a biography of James Beard. While he was a culinary giant, the book looks beyond Beard’s public image and shows him as the interesting, complex, queer character he was.

You don’t want to miss this fast-moving and entertaining hour-long presentation with 15 minutes for Q&A.
