Bee Wilson is a British food writer and historian whose books explore cooking, eating habits, and kitchen culture.

An award-winning journalist, she won Fortnum & Mason Food Book of the Year for First Bite and The Way We Eat Now.
Biografia e Jornada do Autor
Bee Wilson emerged from a notably literary and academic milieu into one of the English-speaking world’s most distinctive food-writing careers. Trained first as a historian, she completed a Cambridge doctorate on early French utopian socialism and then held a research fellowship in the history of ideas at St John’s College, Cambridge. That scholarly formation has remained central to her work: even when she writes about a spoon, a loaf of bread, or a weeknight supper, she tends to use food as an entry point into larger questions of technology, memory, habit, and everyday life.
