Catheryn Kilgarriff

I am Publisher at Prospect Books, and have been since 2014, when I took over from Tom Jaine. The food history list is thriving, with new authors each year as well as new books from existing authors. I am enjoying experimenting with new cookery skills, as we publish books on baking, vintage breadboards, quince, gingerbread, berries, jam making, and of course, historical recipes.
