}}Jessica B. Harris (born March 18, 1948)[1] is an American culinary historian, college professor, cookbook author and journalist. [2]

Early life

Jessica B. Harris, an only child, was born in Queens, New York in 1948.[3] Her family also had a summer home on Martha's Vineyard.[3] From 1953 to 1961, Harris attended the United Nations International School in New York City.[3] She graduated from the High School of Performing Arts when she was sixteen years old and went on to earn an A.B. in French from Bryn Mawr College (1968).[3] Her junior year at Bryn Mawr, Harris studied in Paris.[4] Following graduation, Harris returned to France to study at the Universite de Nancy for one year.[4] She then earned her master's degree from Queens College (1971) and a Ph.D. from New York University (1983).[5] In 1972, Harris traveled to West Africa to work on her doctoral dissertation.[6]

Career

In the 1970s, Harris worked as a journalist before becoming a food writer. She was book review editor at Essence and theater critic for New York Amsterdam News, the United States' oldest black newspaper.[3]

Harris is a member of the faculty in the English Department at Queens College/C.U.N.Y.[7] She hosts a monthly program, My Welcome Table, on Heritage Radio Network.[8] She has published 12 books.[9] Her primary subjects are the culinary history, foodways and recipes of the African diaspora. Harris was a 2004 winner of the lifetime achievement awards from the Southern Foodways Alliance[10] and a 2010 James Beard Foundation special award honoree.[11][12] Her most recent book is the memoir My Soul Looks Back (2017).[13]
