Julia's Cats: Julia Child's Life in the Company of Cats

The world knows Julia Child as the charismatic woman who brought French cuisine to America and became a TV sensation, but thereâ€™s one aspect of her life thatâ€™s not so familiar. Soon after the Childs arrived in Paris in 1948, a French cat appeared on their doorstep, and Julia recalled, â€œOur domestic circle was completed.â€ Minette captured Juliaâ€™s heart, igniting a lifelong passion for cats equaled only by her love of food and her husband, Paul. All the cherished feline companions who shared Juliaâ€™s lifeâ€”in Paris, Provence, and finally Californiaâ€”reminded her of that magical time in Paris when her life changed forever.
From Juliaâ€™s and Paulâ€™s letters and original interviews with those who knew her best, Patricia Barey and Therese Burson have gathered fresh stories and images that offer a delightfully intimate view of a beloved icon.
