The Art of Eating Today
Eating to Live
with David Servan-Schreiber

Wednesday, December 9, 2009 at 7pm
Le Skyroom

This fall, FIAF’s Art de Vivre series The Art of Eating Today, invites you to discover how trends
in food—the way we eat it, cook it, and its role in our health—change over time and how they influence the way we live.

FIAF welcomes revolutionary French scientist and doctor David Servan-Schreiber, who will discuss the impact of diet on one’s health. Specifically, he will explore the important role food plays in the body’s fight against diseases like cancer.

Servan-Schreiber, a clinical professor of psychiatry at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, co-founder of the U.S. branch of Doctors Without Borders, 15-year survivor of brain cancer, and author of The New York Times best-seller Anticancer: a New Way of Life, is uniquely qualified to speak about how the development of nutritious habits can strengthen your body’s natural cancer-resisting capabilities. Servan-Schreiber will talk about his experience as a cancer survivor and will share his personal journey toward a healthier lifestyle.

The Art of Eating Today will also feature:
The Evolution of Restaurants and the Way We Eat, Wed, Oct 21
Daniel Boulud in Film and Conversation, Mon, Oct 26
