Summary
Chef and restaurateur Marcus Samuelsson was born in Ethiopia on January 25, 1971. He studied at the Culinary Institute in Gothenburg, Sweden, and apprenticed in Switzerland in 1989, and in France from 1992 to 1994. In 1994, Samuelsson moved to the United States for an apprenticeship with Aquavit, a restaurant in New York City. He was quickly promoted to executive chef and made partner of Aquavit in 1997. Samuelsson became the youngest chef ever to receive a three-star restaurant review from The New York Times in 1995, and went on to open three more restaurants in New York City: Riingo, Red Rooster, and Ginny's Supper Club. He founded FoodRepublic.com in 2011, and has launched a restaurant concept called Kitchen & Table with Clarion Hotels. Samuelsson has authored several cookbooks and released his memoir, Yes, Chef, in 2012. His awards include the coveted James Beard Rising Star Chef Award.
