An Evening with Author & Baker Shauna Sever

IL Libraries Present Author and Baker Shauna Sever

Join Shauna Sever, cookbook author, TV and radio contributor, and daughter of the great Midwest for this special Illinois Libraries Present holiday season event. Shauna will share her love of food, baking, and some tips to make your holiday gatherings delicious.

As a writer, Shauna’s work is best defined by her baking-centric cookbooks. Her fourth cookbook, Midwest Made: Big, Bold Baking from the Heartland, was named a Best Baking Cookbook of 2019 by The New York Times. She has also contributed food stories and recipes for The Wall Street Journal, Food52, Bon Appetit, Real Simple, Midwest Living, O Magazine, and many more. Though her career began in broadcast journalism, and she now talks about pie instead of Hollywood, she uses the same skill set for her regular television appearances on the TODAY show and Food Network. After 12 years of California living, Shauna and her family returned to Chicago where she now bakes, writes, and is always on the hunt for great old-school Midwestern bakeries.
