Giuliano Hazan (born 1 December 1958 in Manhattan) is a cookbook author and educator who travels throughout the world teaching Italian cooking. The son of Italian cooking doyenne Marcella Hazan, his combination of Italian palate and American organization[1] makes his message of fresh ingredients prepared in a simple manner, clear, timeless and delicious. His cooking school in Italy, Cooking with Giuliano Hazan, has been profiled in many US publications.[2][3] Hazan is an author, teacher, entrepreneur, and considered by some to be one of the foremost authorities on Italian cooking.[4]

Career

Although born in the United States, Giuliano spent much of his childhood in Italy, and got his first taste of teaching as a teenager, working at his mother's School of Classic Italian Cooking in Bologna(5), where he committed himself to mastering the simple, genuine flavors of Italian cuisine. For more than three decades, Giuliano has taught hands-on and demonstration style courses at cooking schools in Europe and the United States. From 1995 to 1999, he led a number of multi-day courses at the legendary Hotel Cipriani (6) in Venice. He has lectured at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington D.C. and the National Geographic Society. He has appeared at numerous Food and Wine Festivals including: Food & Wine Classic in Aspen, Colorado, The Masters of Food and Wine in Carmel, California, The Book and The Cook in Philadelphia, The Reading Festival in Sarasota, the Epicurean Classic in Michigan; and for 6 years he taught at Disney’s Epcot Food and Wine Festival.

He is a regular guest on the Today Show (7) and has been a guest on the nationally syndicated PBS show, Seasonings. His school in Italy has been featured by the Fine Living network, and he is often a guest on local TV shows in cities to which he is traveling.

In 2000, Hazan and his wife, Lael, inaugurated a cooking school of their own, Cooking with Giuliano Hazan (8). Each spring and fall, the couple – along with partner, Marilisa Allegrini of Allegrini Winery(9) in Valpolicella – offer culinary and travel enthusiasts a true taste of Italy at Villa Giona, a restored Renaissance villa outside Verona.

In 2007 Giuliano received the coveted Cooking Teacher of the Year Award from the International Association of Culinary Professionals.[5]

Hazan is married to food educator, Lael Hazan and is the father of Gabriella and Michela. The family lives in Sarasota, Florida.
