Chef

The Resume

    (September 21, 1969- )
    Born in Cazenovia, New York
    Graduate of the Culinary Institute of America (Associate in Occupational Studies, 1996)
    Host of ‘Secrets of a Restaurant Chef’ and ‘Chef Wanted with Anne Burrell’
    Original mentor on ‘Worst Cooks in America’

Why she might be annoying:

    Her hair!
    She hates working in an office. (Tough luck, even chefs need an office.)
    She was at the center of a dispute over whether her relationship was outed by Ted Allen on a radio broadcast or already publicly confirmed.
    She has a thing for mismatched socks.
    In the second season of ‘Worst Cooks,’ she made a bet with Robert Irvine: her recruit wins, he goes platinum; his recruit wins, she lops off her locks (she won).

Why she might not be annoying:

    Obviously, she looks and acts nothing like your standard telegenic television personality.
    She spent nine months working in various facilities in Italy.
    On her return to the States, she became a sous chef at a facility owned by Lidia Bastianich.
    Mario Batali tapped her for a pilot taping of Iron Chef America as his sous chef.
    Where there have been several Blue Team mentors on ‘Worst Cooks,’ she was the only Red Team mentor throughout its first six years.
