Listen "Supper with Sylvia-Chef Art Smith, a Chicago Treasure"
Episode Synopsis
Chicagoan of the Year, Executive Chef, Humanitarian and Hall of Famer are just a few of the accolades bestowed upon Art Smith. Most people know he got his start as Oprah Winfrey's personal chef and skyrocketed into the culinary world cooking meals for presidents, princesses and heads of state. Chef Art is often described as a celebrity himself, but there's no doubt he's most comfortable in the kitchen providing much needed food and warmth for thousands of people trapped in the unforgiving circumstances that come with poverty, natural disasters and war.
