Author Biography

DANIEL GERCKE is a writer living in Brooklyn, New York. He has written cookbooks about pies, chickens, and zombies, but at heart he has always been a Green Eggs and Ham kind of guy. His Bar-ba-loot suit still fits. He shares a very lively kitchen with his wife, Melissa Clark, and their daughter, Dahlia.

CHRISTOPHER TESTANI was born and raised in upstate New York and studied cinema and photography at Ithaca College. In 2012 he was selected as one of PDN magazine's 30 photographers to watch, and has gone on to work regularly for a wide range of top editorial and commercial clients around the world. As an avid cook, outdoor enthusiast, and traveler, his work draws inspiration from the things he loves--good food, people, travel, and the stories that bring them all together. He currently lives in Brooklyn, NY, but can regularly be found traveling wherever the job takes him, or daydreaming about that perfect little cabin in the woods.
