My guest today is actor, writer and producer, Stanley Tucci. Stanley has directed five films and appeared over seventy, including The Devil Wears Prada and Road to Perdition, as well as more than a dozen plays, on and off-Broadway. He starred in Julie & Julia, opposite Meryl Streep, and The Lovely Bones, for which he earned his first Academy Award nomination, for Best Supporting Actor. He is the winner of two Golden Globes and two Emmys. His foody TV show, Stanley Tucci: Searching for Italy, recently aired on CBS and is Emmy nominated.
