About Makenna Held Books

Makenna Held bought La Pitchoune, Julia Child's summer home in Provence sight-unseen in 2016, when she came across a listing for it in The New York Times. Today, she operates the home as the Courageous Cooking School. She was the host of La Pitchoune: Cooking in France on the Magnolia Network, a seven-part show that featured Makenna and her fellow teachers as they welcomed guests to La Peetch for a week-long cooking class. A graduate of Smith College, she and Julia share an alma mater, and Makenna has appeared in Vogue, Eater, Condé Nast Traveler, Boston Magazine, among other media outlets.
