Erin French is the owner and chef of The Lost Kitchen, a 40-seat restaurant in Freedom, Maine, that was recently named one of TIME Magazine’s World’s Greatest Places and one of "12 Restaurants Worth Traveling Across the World to Experience" by Bloomberg. She is the author of the New York Times bestselling memoir, Finding Freedom and star of hit TV series The Lost Kitchen, and the book of the same name. A born-and-raised native of Maine, Erin learned early the simple pleasures of thoughtful food and the importance of gathering for a meal. Her love of sharing Maine and its delicious heritage with curious dinner guests and new friends alike has been lauded by such outlets such as the New York Times, Martha Stewart Living, NPR, CBS, The Today Show, Wall Street Journal, and Food & Wine.
