Clara Cannucciari
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Clara Bonfanti Cannucciari (born August 18, 1915) is the host of the webseries Great Depression Cooking with Clara and author of the book Clara's Kitchen.
Born in Chicago, Illinois, on August 18, 1915, Clara went on to live through America's Great Depression. During these difficult times, her freshly emigrated Sicilian American parents (Giuseppe and Giuseppina Bonfanti) were hit especially hard by Americas economic woes. Clara's mother found inventive ways to stretch the families meals and the family emerged from the Depression safe and healthy.
In 2007 Clara's grandson Christopher Cannucciari began filming Clara preparing her mothers Depression meals and assembled the footage into the YouTube series Great Depression Cooking with Clara.[1]
