Taste Makers: An Evening with Mayukh Sen (Virtual Event)

Join us for an evening with Mayukh Sen, author of Taste Makers: Seven Immigrant Women Who Revolutionized Food in America, in conversation with SAPAAC board member Katie Gee Salisbury.

Sen, Class of 2014, is a James Beard and IACP Award-winning writer based in Brooklyn. His 2021 book Taste Makers tells the stories of seven trailblazing women chefs and cookbook authors and how their culinary legacies have forever changed American tastes.

Weaving together histories of food, immigration, and gender, Taste Makers challenges the way readers look at what’s on their plate―and the women whose labor, overlooked for so long, made those meals possible. 

This event is free and open to all Stanford alumni.
