Rebecca Katz MS, author of One Bite at a Time: Nourishing Recipes for Cancer Survivors and their Friends (Second Edition) is an accomplished chef, and culinary translator. She holds a Masters of Science degree in Health and Nutrition Education, and received her culinary training from the Natural Gourmet Institute for Health and Culinary Arts.

A myriad of food related experiences, including a sojourn to Italy, where she studied Mediterranean cuisine from chefs and signoras from Florence to Sicily, shaped Rebecca’s philosophy that health-supportive food must taste great in order to be nourishing and healing.
