Born into the tumult of the French Revolution, Antoine Carême would rise from poverty to become one of history’s most acclaimed chefs, crossing paths with such figures as Napoleon, Tsar Alexander, and the Rothschilds.

Carême was one of my early projects at One of Us. I carried out some briefing and QC on the show. A large part of my responsibility was helping the Paris roto/prep team with their shot work.
