Michael James. My lover, boyfriend, business partner for 21 years. Died of AIDS related illnesses on the 25th of July , 1993. He was 43 years old. The picture that is shown here is how he looked the day he came into Chez Panisse (where I was working) for lunch with his boss Mme. Simone Beck, co-author with Julia Child of Mastering the Art of French Cooking. My life changed forever that on Fall day in Berkeley. Within 3 months I was living with him in Paris.
I miss him terribly.
love,
Billy
