FRITZI BODENHEIMER: John Donohue is an editor and cartoonist for the New Yorker magazine. He discovered a new job for himself when he became a father for the first time.
JOHN DONOHUE: “I started cooking a lot for my wife and the baby. It was a lot of fun.”
FRITZI BODENHEIMER: Now Mr. Donohue has published a book called “Man With a Pan: Culinary Adventures of Fathers Who Cook For Their Families.” He asked other men to share their stories. He collected thirty-four essays written by writers and chefs
Two dozen fathers, writers and chefs contribute to 'Man With a Pan: Culinary Adventures of Fathers Who Cook for Their Families.' by John Donohue.
One of them was Mark Bittman , a food writer for the New York Times. Mr. Donohue explained how Mr. Bittman became a food writer.
JOHN DONOHUE: “He was married, he had a new baby. He was driving a taxi. He was kind of working odd jobs and so he started to cook. That led to his first book, which actually put him on the map as a writer.”
