The Schlesinger Library of the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study is acquiring the Elizabeth David papers. The foremost British food writer of her day and author of nine definitive books, David, who was born in 1913 and died in 1992, helped reawaken the postwar British palate while educating, through authentic recipes and compelling investigation, a generation of cooks about food and its joys. The collection of Davids correspondence, diaries, travel journals, handwritten recipe files, and photographs - which is coming from Jill Norman, the literary trustee of the David estate and Davids publisher, editor, and close personal friend - is expected to be available later in the year.
