Laurie David will be a guest speaker and panelist at the fifth annual James Beard Foundation Food Conference in New York on Oct 27 and 28.

This year’s theme, “Health & Food: Is Better Food the Prescription for a Healthier America?,” will bring together a diverse group of thought leaders in agricultural technology, nutrition science, processing, manufacturing, policy, and public health to take a hard look at health and food, and what is and is not working to address the health impacts of the modern American diet.

In addition to Laurie, participants include Mark Bittman, Dr. Zeke Emanuel, Sam Kass, Marion Nestle, Dr. Robert Lustig and Michael Pollan.
