Bio: Marissa Rothkopf Bates writes about food for the New York Times, Newsweek (RIP) and Publishers’ Weekly, among others. For Newsweek she wrote the “Gadget Lust” column, where she reviewed all manner of weird and inventive kitchen technologies. She is currently working on a book about the history of technology and innovation in the American kitchen. Marissa has worked at SPY magazine (a long time ago, when she was very little); Nickelodeon, CondéNast, Hearst and helped launch Oxygen television when it was still a network for women. She enjoys writing about herself in the third person in her spare time. Marissa has a fancy graduate degree in history and earned her professional qualification as a chef from the Institute of Culinary Education, yet still gets nervous when asked to make custard.
