Julia Child: Serving America

Julia Child Spy and Chef

Julia Child

In 1963 Julia Child became the 1st superstar chef on TV. Her program was so influential, that the Smithsonian Institute features her kitchen, intact, as a permanent exhibit! There was another side to Julia Child–one that the public knew little about.  In 1943, twenty years earlier, during World War II she worked in the OSS, which was to become the CIA. She worked at the right hand of “Wild Bill Donovan, the head of America’s foreign spies! With her husband, Julia Child moved from one dangerous post

to another, serving our country before she learned how to cook.
