(California 1912 - 2004) She graduated from Smith College and during World War II worked for the OSS (Office of Strategic Services) in Ceylon and China, where she met Paul Child whom she married and moved to Paris with. After studying at Le Cordon Bleu and having worked in the kitchens of distinguished French chefs, in 1951 Julia Child opened her own cooking school, L'École des Trois Gourmandes, with Simone Beck and Louisette Bertholle. Together, they wrote the first volume of Mastering the Art of French Cooking (1961). In 1963, Boston WGBH premiered the television program The French Chef, which made Julia Child a national star and with which she won the Peabody Award in 1965 and an Emmy in 1966. Julia Child was decorated with the French government's Legion of Honor and the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2003.
