DeLong is found nowhere on the World Wide Web. She also keeps to herself in person and flies private once a week from the Silicon Valley to a dirt airstrip in a remote corner of Utah. I've been picking her up and dropping her off at San Francisco International Airport for four years now. How she caught the attention of my other passengers - all high-octane tech types - only became clear after somebody tried to kill me - for the third time. From patent trolls and VC's, to the FBI and the Red Chinese, everyone's in a bloody hurry to get their hands on the next big thing. And all they had to do was ask their driver - the insider no one notices.

Book Synopsis Julia Child Rules by : Karen Karbo

Download or read book Julia Child Rules written by Karen Karbo. This book was released on 2013-09-27. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of us have dog-eared copies of Mastering the Art of French Cooking in our kitchens or fondly remember watching episodes of The French Chef, but what was behind the enormous appeal of this ungainly, unlikely woman, who became a superstar in midlife and changed our approach to food and cooking forever? In the spirit of The Gospel According to Coco Chanel and How Georgia Became O'Keeffe, Julia Child Rules dissects the life of the sunny, unpretentious chef, author, cooking show star, and bon vivant, with an eye towards learning how we, too, can savor life. With her characteristic wit and flair, Karen Karbo takes us for a spin through Julia's life: from her idyllic childhood in California to her confusing young adulthood in New York; her years working for the OSS in Sri Lanka; her world class love affairs with Paris and Paul Child; and her decades as America's beloved French chef. Karbo weaves in her own personal experiences and stops for important life lessons along the way: how to live by your whims, make the world your oyster, live happily married, work hard, and enjoy a life of full immersion. It celebrates Julia's indomitable spirit and irrepressible joy, giving readers a taste of what it means to master the art of living.

Download or read book How Georgia Became O'Keeffe written by Karen Karbo. This book was released on 2013-04-02. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most people associate Georgia O’Keeffe with New Mexico, painted cow skulls, and her flower paintings. She was revered for so long—born in 1887, died at age ninety-eight in 1986—that we forget how young, restless, passionate, searching, striking, even fearful she once was—a dazzling, mysterious female force in bohemian New York City during its heyday. In this distinctive book, Karen Karbo cracks open the O’Keeffe icon in her characteristic style, making one of the greatest women painters in American history vital and relevant for yet another generation. She chronicles O’Keeffe’s early life, her desire to be an artist, and the key moment when art became her form of self-expression. She also explores O’Keeffe’s passionate love affair with master photographer Alfred Stieglitz, who took a series of 500 black-and-white photographs of O’Keeffe during the early years of their marriage. This is not a traditional biography, but rather a compelling, contemporary reassessment of the life of O’Keeffe with an eye toward understanding what we can learn from her way of being in the world.
