Indy-based writer and foodie Karen Kennedy was born in a small town in northern Indiana where tuna casserole and Jell-O(R) salads were de rigeur. She's come a long way. In addition to her long career in the restaurant business, she has made her living as a cabaret singer, actress, hand model, newspaper reporter, event planner, gameshow host and, most recently, ad copy writer. When she decides what she wants to be when she grows up, she will get back to you. Karen is happily married to a brilliant, cello-playing optometrist, her beloved "Peach," Dr. Abigail David.
