ⓘ About Alton Brown
Alton Brown is an American actor, food personality, author, and cinematographer. He is also an “Iron Chef America” commentator and the host and creator of the miniseries “Feasting on Asphalt” and “Good Eats” the Food Network television show. Brown was born in Los Angeles but his parents were originally from Cornelia, Georgia who went on their honeymoon in L.A. and never left. His father moved the family to Cleveland in the 1960s after buying a radio station and this was quite a culture shock to the young Brown. Looking back, he had one of the worst public education and thinks it remarkable that he did not become a drug dealer. Perhaps it was the fact that he got into jazz music rather than laze about driving a Camaro and smoking joints. Rising to prominence with the Publication Order of Good Eats Books series, Alton Brown has since expanded their repertoire to include numerous successful works across various genres. Their writing style, characterized by compelling narratives and memorable characters, has earned them a dedicated global readership with millions of fans worldwide.
