Jewell Fenzi

Her two cookbooks mixed diplomacy with food with the deftness of an anthropologist.

By 1993, The Foreign Service Spouse Oral History Program, under the direction of Jewell Fenzi, had 170 interviews of spouses.

She was a ardent advocate for equal rights (for spouses) at the State Department.

November 7, 2017, AAFSW honored Fenzi with the AAFSW Lifetime Achievement Award. During the ceremony, the AAFSW highlighted that Fenzi has been a pioneer of this effort by recording the stories of over 170 American Diplomatic Spouses and initiating the Foreign Service Spouse Oral History Project in 1986. Most of these stories are now in the Library of Congress and a summary of these appears in Jewell Fenzi’s book: “Married to the Foreign Service”, which was published in 1994. For the presentation of this special award, AAFSW President Dr. Joanna Athanasopoulos Owen< requested the help of AAFSW Program Chair and Foreign Born Spouse State Liaison Sheila Switzer who is one of the spouses interviewed for this Project and whose interview is in the Library of Congress. The AAFSW Lifetime Achievement Award presented to Ms. Jewell Fenzi included the picture of the cover of Jewell’s book and it read: “The Associates of the American Foreign Service Worldwide present the AAFSW Lifetime Achievement Award to Jewell Fenzi for being a pioneer in recording the Oral History of the American Diplomatic Spouse. Tuesday, November 7, 2017.”
