"Serving Jefferson: 
The James Hemings Story"

While enslaved by Thomas Jefferson, James Hemings rises from curious boy in Monticello's kitchen to Chef du Cuisine of the first U.S. embassy in France, yet he struggles for his own freedom from slavery, discrimination, and alcoholism. His lasting legacy on American cuisine includes mac-n-cheese, french fries, and creme brulee, yet few Americans know his name.
