Martha Hollis:

After writing the incredible travel book, The International Breakfast Book (Macmillan, 1997), Martha has returned to eating lunch and dinner. Her travel and cuisine writing runs from haute to boat to soap.

For the last six years, she has been traveling the globe as international contributing editor for Culinary Trends magazine evaluating haute cuisine. On the waters she scribed a national magazine column for Powerboat Provisioning. And one of  her popular books is Cooking with the Young and Restless, the longest-running soap opera on television, now in its twenty-fifth year.

Martha is ecstatic that she finally found a real-world use for her Ph.D. in Decision and Information Sciences and her training as a professional chef. Do not miss her book, Culinary Secrets of Great Virginia Chefs.

She also freelances travel, food, and technology features for Destinations, Boating for Women, Simply Seafood, Essentially American (London),  Penthouse, National Culinary Review,  US News & World Report New Media.
