Judith and Evan Jones
Judith Jones, an editor at Alfred A. Knopf in New York,
learned to cook in her aunt's Vermont kitchen. She is not
only the preeminent cookbook editor in publishing but also
edits such literary icons as John Updike, John Hersey, and
Anne Tyler.
Her husband, the late Evan Jones, began cooking as a youngster in Minnesota and is the author of books of history that include American Food: The Gastronomic Story and The World of Cheese. They collaborated on The Book of Bread, published in 1982, and The L.L. Bean Book of New New England Cookery, published in 1987.
Mitra Modarressi, the illustrator of Knead It, Punch It, Bake It!, is the daughter of Anne Tyler.
A Note About the Dog
Modarressi's charming
line-drawings add warmth and humor to this edition of
Knead It, Punch It, Bake It! Modarressi
even used Judith Jones' beloved Welsh Corgi, Madoc, as the
model for the ever-present dog in the book.
