Marilyn Peterson

Marilyn Peterson, born in 1935, has been teaching the transition diet for over 38 years. The chapter "Life is a Bowl of Cherish" from her book Vegan Bite By Bite, entertainingly describes her life journey. She started her career cleaning up at a doctor's seminar and ended up cooking therapeutic meals for the students at the doctor's seminar for years. After that, she spring-boarded to teaching and cooking for more doctors in preventative medicine, as well as cooking for herbalist's seminars.

Word of mouth referrals led Marilyn to cooking for spas, as well as designing personal health programs for celebrities, and clients in the form of meal preparation. Her website www.veganbitebybite.org has a Photo Gallery that is filled with color photographs of dishes she has prepared over the years and many are in her E-book and digital versions of VEGAN BITE BY BITE.

She resides with her husband in Los Angeles, California, where she continues to teach and consult on "How to make the transition to a plant-based diet."
