 Julia Child Remembered (washingtonpost.com)
When Julia did a sample cooking show at WGBH in Boston in 1963, she lit up the switchboard and a new phase in public television was launched.....she remained on television for virtually 40 years....her reruns of older shows still bring her into homes every day.
But, at the Museum, we will be receiving and inviting guests into her kitchen every day of the year--to remember and celebrate her legacy to us.
Most visitors are surprised that they are actually seeing the "real thing," not a replica....but they love the kitchen because it's not a slicked up, high tech kitchen, but a real home kitchen.
