Remembering Julia Child
The movie Julie & Julia, opens today. In the film, Meryl Streep brings Julia Child back to life for the viewer. But how realistic is she? Joining The Takeaway is someone who can give us a first hand comparison between the real Julia Child and Meryl Streep’s version of Julia. Russell Morash, known as the father of ?how-to? and ?know-how? television, was the producer of “The French Chef” with Julia Child. He also helped create and produce such notable DIY shows as This Old House, Victory Garden, and New Yankee Workshop.
