Born and raised in Florida, Frankie Harvey’s passion for cooking began as a child. Growing up in a large Lebanese family of twelve aunts and uncles and dozens of cousins, family time revolved around cooking and nurturing relationships through food.
Inspired by the simple joy that great food can bring, Frankie spent 12 years working in the catering and food service industry, which served to deepen her love of gourmet cooking. After raising five children, in whom she instilled a similar appreciation and love of cooking, her family and friends urged her to share her talent and passion with the public. Frankie started a weekly cooking blog and within a year had gained a worldwide audience. Wanting to share some of her favorite and most personal recipes, Frankie wrote Entertaining with The Elegant Gourmet, her first cookbook of original recipes.
Following its publication, Frankie began a series of television appearances, cooking demonstrations, food and wine tastings, charity events, and interviews. More recently, Frankie has been traveling to explore new cuisines and to meet chefs, restaurateurs, food bloggers, and foodies of all kinds to keep her blog fresh and inventive and to share her ever growing passion for food and wine. She also is a Columnist to HOME Magazine and a cooking instructor.
Frankie won Iron Chef 2015 competition for Taste of Gainesville.
