Bio
Bryant Terry is an American chef and author best known for appearing on the television cooking and lifestyle series The Endless Feast, in 2007.
Terry's passion for grub can be traced back to his childhood in Memphis, Tennessee where his grandparents inspired him to grow, cook and appreciate food.
In 2001, Bryant founded b-healthy! (Build Healthy Eating and Lifestyles to Help Youth), a New York City-based not-for-profit organisation dedicated to nutritional education.
His first book Grub: Ideas for an Urban Organic Kitchen, co-written with Anna Lappé, offers readers ideas, hands-on tools and menus to create healthy lives for themselves and their communities.
Since the publication of Grub, Bryant has traveled America speaking and doing cooking demonstrations at bookstores, farmers markets, co-ops, churches, clubs, cafes and over a dozen universities, including Stanford University, Columbia University, and New York University.
As a whole foods chef, Bryant caters events, providing delicious, health-supportive food and education about the personal and environmental benefits of maintaining a Grub diet.
Bryant graduated from the Chef's Training Program at the Natural Gourmet Cookery School in New York City. He holds an M.A. in History from New York University and a B.A. with honours in English from Xavier University of Louisiana.
He lives in Oakland.
