James Beard (5 de maio de 1903 - 21 de janeiro de 1985)[1] foi um chef estadunidense, autor de livros de receitas, professor e personalidade da televisão. Ele foi o pioneiro em programas de culinária na televisão, ensinou na The James Beard Cooking School em Nova York e Seaside, Oregon, e deu muitas palestras. Ele enfatizou a culinária americana, preparada com ingredientes americanos frescos e saudáveis, para um país que acaba de se tornar ciente de sua própria herança culinária. Beard ensinou e orientou gerações de chefs profissionais e entusiastas da comida.[2] Ele publicou mais de vinte livros e sua memória é homenageada pelos prêmios anuais James Beard de sua fundação.
