Image of Columbus Dispatch Food Editor Betty Montrei Ramsey

I am in the middle of writing an article about Ohio food editors, especially those who are included in the 1952 cookbook, Coast to Coast Cookery. One of those women was Betty Montrei and I just found this image of her in the newspaper’s test kitchen.

This is the photo caption: “This 1950 photo shows an early incarnation of the Dispatch test kitchen, where Dispatch Magazine Food Editor Betty Montei Ramsey is preparing a dish. Don’t be fooled by the scene outside the “window,” though — the test kitchen always has been in the Dispatch basement.”
