Publishers Text

An intimate portrait of Julia Child, from the woman who was at her side for 24 years.

From 1980 onward, Nancy Verde Barr was Julia Child's right-hand woman - the executive chef and friend who helped orchestrate the television shows, cookbooks, and articles that made Julia such a beloved figure. Now, Barr looks back over their long association and brings to life the real Julia - the adventurous, inquisitive, and often mischievous woman who was completely unassuming despite her fame. Sharing vivid anecdotes and stories - from prepping a cooking demonstration on Good Morning America to vacationing with Julia in France - as well as personal notes, letters, and recipes, Backstage with Julia is a delightful read for all of the people who made Julia's My Life in France a bestseller.
