The Wine Writers’ Symposium

Corie Brown is the founder of ZesterDaily.com, a digital magazine with original content on food and wine. She is the former Los Angeles Times food section’s wine writer, where she found her stories at the nexus of agriculture, money, consumer interest, evolving culture mores, personality, glamour and hard news. A serious journalist who had been a staff reporter with Newsweek, Business Week, and Premiere Magazine before joining the Los Angeles Times in 2000, Brown has often been the first to document significant trends in the field of wine.
