Deb’s Lunch is written by me, Debra Shapiro, retired librarian, foodie and cook for hire. I wanted to be an artist when I was growing up, and studied art & art history in college. The resulting BA in art history turned out to be the qualifying degree for about 15 years of restaurant work. My favorite thing to do is cook for people, and I love to research and write recipes. I write about food, photograph food, post on Instagram mostly about food (and kittens and babies) and from 2006 to 2014, I operated a private dining club called schoolwoods.com
