Women’s History Month: Julie Duvac Bowes
Day 21 of Women’s History Month features Julie Duvac Bowes of New Orleans. She began her career of 30 years as the Food Editor of the Times-Picayune in 1949 under the pen name of Sue Baker. She tested on her family the recipes that she used in her twice-weekly column, published on Thursdays and in color on Sundays in the Dixie Roto Magazine. She graduated from Louisiana State University with a degree in home economics in 1942. She married during World War II, and her husband later became a judge. She raised five children and was an accomplished golfer. She is featured in my upcoming book, The Food Section.
