Elmhurst Public Library Hosts Cookbook Author Shauna Sever

Elmhurst, IL – Join Shauna Sever, cookbook author, TV and radio contributor, and native of the great Midwest for a special holiday season event. Shauna will share her love of food, baking, and some tips to make your holiday gatherings delicious.

As a writer, Shauna’s work is best defined by her baking-centric cookbooks. Her fourth, Midwest Made: Big, Bold Baking from the Heartland, was named as one of the Best Baking Cookbooks of 2019 by The New York Times. Since her career began in broadcast journalism, she uses the same skill set for her regular television appearances on the TODAY Show and Food Network. After 12 years of California living, Shauna and her family returned to Chicago, where she now bakes, writes, and is always on the hunt for great old-school Midwestern bakeries.

Louisa Chu will join Shauna in conversation. Chu is a Chicago Tribune food critic and is a co-host for the Chewing podcast.

This event is made possible by Illinois Libraries Present, a statewide collaboration among public libraries offering premier events.
