白宫历任行政总厨成展览主角：《烹饪外交官》回顾1961至2024年白宫餐桌，11月10日晚线上开讲
白宫历史协会推出展览《烹饪外交官：白宫行政总厨的美食遗产（1961-2024）》（Culinary Diplomats: The Gastronomic Legacy of White House Executive Chefs），并于11月10日美东时间17时30分在其 Facebook 与 YouTube 页面直播一期「白宫历史直播」节目，由客座策展人 Ethan McNamara 亲自讲解。
展览聚焦白宫行政总厨这一职位：历任总厨既是为国宴掌勺的精细餐饮高手，也是照料总统家庭日常餐桌的家常厨师，他们按每位总统的口味调整技艺，把白宫餐饮提升到豪华酒店水准。展览讲述的细节包括为南非总统曼德拉设宴，以及为日本首相大平正芳烤制整猪等往事。
McNamara 为纽约大学 Steinhardt 学院媒体、文化与传播系新近毕业的硕士。白宫厨房位于行政官邸底层，协会藏有1970年4月 Joseph J. Scherschel 拍摄的总厨 Henry Haller 等人在厨房备餐的历史照片。

Culinary Diplomats: A White House History Exhibit Revisits the Executive Chefs of 1961-2024, With a Livestream Talk on November 10
The White House Historical Association is presenting the exhibit Culinary Diplomats: The Gastronomic Legacy of White House Executive Chefs (1961-2024), and on November 10 at 5:30 p.m. ET it will stream a White House History Live episode on its Facebook and YouTube pages, with guest curator Ethan McNamara discussing the show.
The exhibit celebrates the position of White House Executive Chef: the chefs who were at once fine-dining standouts serving state occasions and home cooks for their respective first families, adapting their skills to each presidential palate and elevating White House dining to luxury-hotel standards. Stories range from the elegant banquet for Nelson Mandela to the barbecued pigs prepared for Japanese Prime Minister Masayoshi Ōhira, and all the daily meals in between.
McNamara is a recent master's graduate of NYU Steinhardt's Department of Media, Culture, and Communications. The White House Kitchen sits on the Ground Floor of the Executive Mansion; the Association's collection includes Joseph J. Scherschel's April 1970 photograph of Executive Chef Henry Haller and his team at work in it.
