About Cooking Gluten-Free! Author, Karen Robertson
Karen
Robertson began her journey into the gluten-free world when her
children were first diagnosed with
celiac disease in 1997. This disorder is
virtually cured with the gluten-free diet. As an advertising account
executive with a degree in marketing Karen transferred her
organizational and creative skills to produce an award winning book.
Thousands of people with
gluten
intolerance now lead a more delicious life.
In addition to working
with celebrity chefs to write and publish this book she has taught
gluten-free cooking classes at PCC Natural Food Markets in Seattle
as well as national patient conferences for the Gluten Intolerance
Group, Children's Hospital Celiac Conference in Columbus, Ohio, and
the Canadian Celiac Association.
She has appeared for
book signings at conferences for Stanford University, the Celiac
Disease Foundation, and the Gluten Intolerance Group.
Karen was an Associate
Food Editor at Living Without magazine, and a camp cook and
board member for the Gluten Intolerance Group. She is currently
working on articles for Living Without magazine.
She won the 2003
Benjamin Franklin Gold Award for excellence in publishing (judged by
leaders in the publishing world such as the top buyer at Barnes &
Noble, editors, publishers, large and small, booksellers, etc.)
