This summer Julia Child will come alive again—not that she’s ever far from our thoughts, with the continued proliferation of TV cooking shows—when Meryl Streep channels her in the movie Julie & Julia, opening August 7. The film, written and directed by Nora Ephron, interweaves the true story of a thirty-year-old New York office temp named Julie Powell (played by Amy Adams)—who in 2002 embarked on a yearlong mission to cook and blog about all 524 recipes in Child’s 1961 epicurean bible Mastering the Art of French Cooking—with Julia Child’s personal experiences in France from 1948 to 1954, when she learned to cook at the famed Cordon Bleu.

Julia Child is a 2005 She Made It honoree.
