Leah Chase was raised in a small, country town across Lake Pontchartrain from New Orleans. With the values instilled in her by devoted parents--hard work, faith and family--she soon grew into a woman to be reckoned with. In her roles as chef of the most popular Creole restaurant in New Orleans, nationally respected patron of the arts, and civic leader, she has influenced the world around her in important ways. Reading her story in this, her only biography, makes one think, "If she can do it, maybe I can too."

Carol Allen began her career as an educator and school administrator in public schools in Louisiana and Nebraska and as a university professor in South Carolina. She founded and, for six years, directed the Paris Writers Workshop and organized the international conference, Women on the Move. She is the author of a book of children's poetry and has edited a collection of essays by women on living abroad. Allen divides her time between Provence and Paris, France, and New Orleans, Louisiana. LEAH CHASE is a recipient of the Southern Foodways Alliance's Lifetime Achievement Award. The Southern Food and Beverage Museum created the Leah Chase Louisiana Gallery in her honor.
