Anna Gershenson is a professional cook, recipe developer and tester, culinary and healthy-eating educator and a television personality. She has run a successful catering business since 1980, and has coined her own style of cooking which focuses on creating delicious meals using seasonal ingredients and healthy preparations.


Anna has developed a strong connection with the local farms in the Berkshires, where she lives, and where she hosts The Natural Cook with Anna Gershenson on Pittsfield Community Television. Anna often features local chefs and farmers on her show.


Her recipes have been published in the Boston Globe and on Food52, and her now-famous kreplach were prominently featured in New York Magazine and as part of Jewish Food Society’s Schmaltzy story-telling event.
