Lectures and cooking demos: I’ve given talks on eco-friendly food and healthy eating to audiences at the Manhattan Chamber of Commerce, the Manhattan Borough President’s Office, Bette Midler’s New York Restoration Project, the New York Botanical Garden, and the Leonard branch of the Brooklyn Public Library, made famous in the turn-of-century memoir A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. As a seasoned teacher, I’m very comfortable speaking effectively and authoritatively in front of live audiences or in front of the camera.
