Steven Anthony Shaw (June 10, 1969 – April 8, 2014) was an American lawyer and food critic.
From his experiences, he prepared a restaurant "survival guide" for the city of Wilmington, Delaware where his firm often was in court.
The early death of his father of a heart attack at the age of 58 inspired him to pursue a career that he would truly enjoy.
He made posts asking for help finding people from places where he was going to film who could provide guidance on local food.
Shaw wrote a six-part series on the meals he had for the Ottawa Citizen and its sister newspapers.
[1] Before his death, Shaw was the Director of New Media Studies at the International Culinary Center and was the community manager for Quirky.
[9] In 2002, Shaw won a James Beard award for Internet Column and Feature Writing for his piece A Week in the Gramercy Tavern Kitchen which was published on his website Fat-Guy.com.
