T. Susan Chang spent years putting off being a food writer before running out of excuses not to enjoy herself.
Since her first article was published in 2001, Susie has written about growing, cooking, and eating food for a variety of national outlets, including the Boston Globe, the Associated Press, and a few major magazines. She is the Boston Globe's regular cookbook reviewer and a frequent contributor to NPR's Kitchen Window series. She is the resident cookbook reviewer at the cookbook indexing website eatyourbooks.com and the author of the Bookshelf column at AOL's Kitchen Daily website.
From 2004 to 2006, Susie served as a Food and Society Policy Fellow, working on food policy and children's nutrition. She continues to advocate local sustainability issues--especially farm-to-school, school nutrition, and school gardening--in an advisory, volunteer capacity.
She lives in western Massachusetts with her husband Randy, son Noah, daughter Zoe, and father Nai. Everyone in the family has a marvelous appetite. She likes gardening, sewing, and eating apples.
