Rachael Ray
According to Rachael Ray, she grew up in food. “My first vivid memory is watching Mom in a restaurant kitchen. She was flipping something with a spatula.

Ray has parlayed that birthright into a wildly successful career as an iconic Food Network television show host, bestselling cookbook author and editor-in-chief of her own lifestyle magazine. In 2007, she is now known for success in syndication as host of “Rachael Ray,” an hour-long, daytime show that debuted on September 18, 2006.
