Los Angeles & Chicago Editor

Jamie is the editor of Resy L.A. and Resy Chicago. She is the co-author of six cookbooks and one memoir, including the James Beard Award-winning “Taste & Technique” and IACP Award-recognized “Italian American.” After starting her career as a Gourmet magazine intern in New York (while moonlighting as a farmers market manager), she has gone on to write and edit for many of the country’s top food publications. After one too many winters in New York, she decamped to Los Angeles and finally bought a vintage Saab convertible.
