Stewart’s first book, Entertaining , was released in 1982 and since then she has gone on to publish 78 award-winning cooking and creativity publications while launching her media empire. Stewart has long been heralded for her culinary talents, and in 2014 she won a James Beard Award for her television program, Martha Stewart’s Cooking School.
