About the Author of Baby Bites

Nonna in Office Nonna* Joann Bruso began her writing career over thirty years ago with a monthly nutrition column. After the demands of raising children lessened, she worked full-time editing the Colorado Christian News. It seems fitting that Nonna Joann has returned to the topic of healthy eating.

In addition to writing, Nonna Joann produces a podcast, “What’s Cookin’ with Nonna?” Where she serves up oodles of food fun and hot kitchen tips, with a generous helping of sizzling nutrition news. She frequently speaks to mom and parent groups. Nonna Joann and her husband of over 40 years, Dick, make their home outside of Denver, Colorado. They have four grown daughters and six grandchildren (one more in July). And, yes, Joshy is no longer a picky eater, but a healthy eater!

*Nonna is Italian for grandmother
