Rhoda Boone

Senior Director, Culinary Production, Emeritus

Rhoda Boone graduated from Washington University in St. Louis with a BFA in photography and worked in the photo industry for over 6 years, both at Vanity Fair and Mark Seliger's photography studio. Then, in 2009, she left the world of fashion and celebrity to pursue her true passion: food. She graduated at the top of her class from the French Culinary Institute and worked under chef Marco Canora at Hearth, Terroir, and Terroir Tribeca in NYC. After that, she combined the worlds of photography and food in a career as a food stylist and recipe developer. In 2014, Rhoda joined the team at Epicurious as food editor in anticipation of the brand's 2015 relaunch. Eventually, Rhoda would go on to work on video for both Epicurious and Bon Appétit, making sure that the food you see on camera looks as good as it possibly can. In 2022, she left Condé Nast to return to her home state of Texas where she currently lives with her husband and two sons.
