      No name carries more weight in the culinary world than that of James Beard. The legendary chef and cookbook author rose from humble beginnings as a caterer in New York City in the late 1930s to become one of the leading voices of the American food landscape. Last night, the spotlight shone brightly across the entire field as the James Beard Foundation Awards were held at New York City’s Lincoln Center. Our Startle.com team is proud to announce that among the elite group of winners recognized at this year’s ceremony, several are a part of the Forbes Travel Guide family as tastemakers or chefs at Star-Rated restaurants.

      About Forbes Travel Guide Editor Natalie Wearstler

      As an Associate Editor at Forbes Travel Guide, I work with spas, hotels and restaurants to make sure our readers are kept updated on the latest trends. Before coming to Forbes Travel Guide, I was the managing editor of White Publishing Company, covering lifestyle topics for Jacksonville Magazine and its sister titles. I’ve also contributed to GO! The Airtran Magazine and The Florida Times-Union. My nomadic upbringing in a Navy family instilled in me a love for travel that has taken me from mountaintops in Hong Kong to the front row of concerts at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival. I daydream about seaside destinations like Greece and Italy, but I’m equally prone to spending an afternoon exploring antique shops in rural small towns or taking in a museum exhibit (and maybe a craft brew or two) in landlocked cities.
