Meet Paula Deen
Culinary icon Paula Deen is a self-
made entrepreneur who learned her
savory secrets from her
grandmother. She started her
career in the food industry with a
small catering company called The
Bag Lady, but business quickly
outgrew her home kitchen. Taking a
leap of faith, she opened her first
restaurant, The Lady and Sons,
which has since become a tourist
hot spot in Savannah, GA. With her
huge personality, delectable recipes
and heart of gold, Paula next found
herself in talks with TV execs after a
friend introduced her to some
influential people in the business.
The rest, as they say, is history.
In addition to her television success,
Paula has sold more than
11,000,000 copies of her 14
cookbooks and launched the Paula
Deen Network, an interactive digital
portal that combines cooking,
lifestyle and game shows with great
recipes, meal-planning tools and
more.
