I am an award-winning author of 15 cookbooks and a widely published food writer. In 2010, I made a career transition and became a certified Transformational Life Coach specializing in career transitions, stepping into a larger life, worrying less and having more fun (!), and aging with excitement and grace. I marvel daily as my clients step into larger shoes and move towards fulfilling bigger and bigger life dreams. If you have a big dream or want to discover one, get in touch. I offer one 30-minute session free of charge to see if we feel excited about working together. Coaching works amazingly well by telephone. Some background: Lorna has often found herself ahead of her time. She began her career in food as a culinary historian. While studying for her PhD in medieval literature at Columbia University, Lorna wrote four historical cookbooks, all published by the Metropolitan Museum of Art.Lorna became interested in pressure cooking during the mid-eighties. She realized that the "pc" could produce “fast food” that was both nutritious and delicious, and began culinary experiments that led to the publication of COOKING UNDER PRESSURE by William Morrow in 1989.COOKING UNDER PRESSURE sold briskly and went back to press 28 times, claiming best-seller status. With almost 300,000 copies in print, COOKING UNDER PRESSURE is considered the bible on the subject and Lorna is considered the person responsible for the pressure cooker’s comeback. Next Lorna wrote GREAT VEGETARIAN COOKING UNDER PRESSURE, and THE PRESSURED COOK. In 2005, William Morrow published Lorna’s PRESSURE PERFECT, her definitive work on pressure cooking. For many years, Lorna was a vegan, decades before anyone was writing about it. During nineties she wrote numerous vegan cookbooks, including SHORT-CUT VEGAN), THE NEW SOY COOKBOOK, and THE NEW VEGAN COOKBOOK.WHOLE GRAINS EVERY DAY, EVERY WAY was published by Clarkson Potter in November 2006 and won the James Beard Award.Specialties: life coach specializing in culinary career transitions, retiring into a larger life, and aging with grace; pressure cooking, vegan cooking, whole grains, quick and easy healthful recipe development, food photography.
