Marge Perry writes a syndicated column for Newsday, is a contributing editor for Cooking Light and Health, a columnist for myrecipes.com, and a former columnist for Better Homes & Gardens and Prevention. She also blogs at asweetandsavorylife.com. Her work appears in Self, Parenting, The New York Times, and many other publications. She reviews restaurants, has contributed to over 20 cookbooks (as well as written her own) and makes frequent television appearances.
