has taught, judged, and lectured about cheese across the world. He has written four books on cheese, including “Cheese: A Connoisseur's Guide to the World's Best,” which won the James Beard Award. Max founded the pioneering cheese programs at New York City's Picholine and Artisanal Bistro. He is an active member of the American Cheese Society, and was one of the founders of its Certified Cheese Professional program, which helped to revolutionize cheese education in the U.S. He has been featured in the “New York Times,” the “Wall Street Journal,” “The Daily Show,” and “Martha Stewart Living,” among many others.
