Ruth Reichl is recognized as one of the most influential voices in the food world, with accolades as a bestselling author, revered food critic and even judge on Bravo’s Top Chef Masters. Known to most as a writer and editor, Ruth steered Gourmet magazine as editor-in-chief for ten years until its closing. As a culinary trailblazer, Ruth speaks about everything food, from her start as chef and later as restaurant critic, to the changing landscape of food writing, the current trends in cuisine and issues of food policy.
Now Ruth is breaking new barriers in documentary features, teaming with director Laura Gabbert to produce and headline the film Food and Country, which premiered at Sundance Film Festival in January 2023. The work stems from Ruth’s connections and insights into the fate of small farmers, ranchers and chefs as they wrestle with the immediate and systemic challenges behind an ever-more consolidating food industry.
