Jamie Oliver

Born on May 27, 1975, Jamie Oliver grew up above his parents' Essex pub The Cricketers, where he helped in the kitchens as a tot, and experimented with his mum's Aga cooker when she wasn't looking. It was an early training which was to prove useful when he left school at 16 to attend Westminster Catering College.

Jobs at several prestigious restaurants in England and the rest of Europe followed. (He has even conquered America with Jamie Oliver's American Food Revolution and Roadtrip) By the time Pat Llewelyn, producer of the Two Fat Ladies TV cookery show contacted him after spotting him in a documentary about the Riverside Café, Jamie Oliver had already risen to the level of sous-chef at the prestigious London eatery. When the tousle-haired maestro stormed onto the TV cooking scene with his programme The Naked Chef critics were initially bemused by the 21-year-old's accent and presenting style. But they were soon forced to accept that audiences loved his simple, fun food, and good natured wide-boy persona. Having set a food revolution in motion in Britain, Jamie Oliver has taken his unique style and passion over the pond to target the USA. Oprah and the other first Lady Michelle Obama embrace him and his vision and you can follow Jamie Oliver's American Food Revolution.on Channel Four in the UK.
