As a long time fan of Top Chef, I'm delighted to have had the opportunity to use my sleuthing skills for a roots-inspired episode of the All Stars season. The elimination challenge was for each chef-testant to create a dish representing his or her heritage, and I'm the genealogist who peeked into each of their pasts to provide a bit of a spark! I'm delighted that part of the episode was filmed at Ellis Island (a favorite place of mine) and thrilled to see genealogy finding its way into a popular, Emmy award-winning series like Top Chef!
