Miriam "Mimi" Sheraton (née Solomon; February 10, 1926 – April 6, 2023) was an American food critic.[1]

Early life and education

Sheraton's mother, Beatrice, was described as an excellent cook and her father, Joseph Solomon, as a commission merchant in a wholesale produce market.[2][3]

A 1943 graduate of Midwood High School,[4][5] Sheraton attended the NYU School of Commerce, majoring in marketing and minoring in journalism. She went to work as a home furnishing copywriter and a certified interior designer.

Food criticism

While traveling often as the home furnishing editor of Seventeen magazine, Sheraton began to explore her interest in food. In December 1975, she became the food critic for The New York Times.[2] She was its first female restaurant critic.[6] After leaving the paper in 1983, she wrote for magazines such as Time, Condé Nast Traveler, Harper's Bazaar and Vogue. She lectured at the Cornell University School of Hotel Administration, and the Culinary Institute of America in St. Helena, California.[7] As of 2016, she was a food columnist for The Daily Beast.[8]

Personal life and death

Sheraton and her husband, Richard Falcone, had a son.[2]

Sheraton died in New York City on April 6, 2023, at the age of 97.[9]
