New York City award-winning author and certified sommelier Sharon Kapnick has written about food and wine for many magazines, including Time, Portfolio, Food & Wine and Hemispheres, and many newspapers, thanks to the New York Times Syndicate. She
won an APEX award for excellence for the story “What’s
for Breakfast,” published by Hemispheres. Sharon contributed to the Oxford Encylopedia of Food and
Drink in America, published in 2004 by Oxford
University Press.
Although she has a bachelor’s degree from the
University of Chicago and a master’s degree from
Boston University, the "degree” she cherishes most is
the Sommelier Certificate Sharon earned, atop the World
Trade Center, from The Sommelier Society of America.
