Charlie Rose talks to the food greats

I just discovered, via the Amateur Gourmet, that Charlie Rose has made his archive of interviews available (for free!) on his website. He's got a food category under the enigmatic heading 'Other' that has 46 conversations with members of the fooderatti, including Ruth Reichl, Mario Batali, the Zagats and the grand dame of food television herself, Julia Child. The clip you see above is a July 2003 show in which Rose talks to Calvin Trillin (who is one of my favorite food writers because of his ability to blend humor with food) about Trillin's book Feeding a Yen. If you've got some time to kill and want to hear smart people talk about food, culture, history and writing, this is a great resource.

Speaking of food interviews, you might find my conversation with Cooking Light magazine editor Mary Kay Culpepper of interest at Mr. Media: http://www.mrmedia.com/2007/08/may-kay-culpepper-cooking-light.html . You can read it or listen to the podcast. Thanks!
