Lizzie Gore-Grimes

After a four-year stint in London working for Condé Nast Publications, Lizzie Gore-Grimes returned to Ireland in 2002 to spend three months at Darina Allen's Ballymaloe Cookery School in East Cork, before returning to the publishing world in Dublin. Here she brought together her passion for food and her background in magazines to launch a quarterly food and lifestyle magazine, Fresh, for Supervalu.

She then went on to become Deputy Editor of Food & Wine Magazine in 2003 and edited the SQ Christmas Magazine for Superquinn, before taking the post to edit Cara magazine in 2005 – the in-flight magazine for Aer Lingus. In 2007, Lizzie left Cara to work as a freelance food and lifestyle journalist.

 

Currently she contributes to Cara, The Sunday Tribune Magazine, Intermezzo, Irish Brides and Food & Wine Magazine. As a freelance editor she has edited a quarterly luxury lifestyle title, K Magazine, for The K Club and the Image Parenting magazine among others. She also wrote the Dublin chapter for Thames and Hudson's StyleCity Europe guide.

She has just finished editing the innovative Truly Tasty Cookbook by Val Twomey (Cork University Press) - a cookbook featuring recipes by Ireland's top chefs for people with kidney disease. 

She also lectures in Journalism at Independent Colleges, Dublin.
