Kimball co-foundedCook’s Illustratedin 1993 and its TV quasi-offshootAmerica’s Test Kitchenin 2001. Lancaster has been at his side for 18 years, working her way up from test cook to her current role as executive food editor for new media, television, and radio. Davison, meanwhile, is in her 17th year and serves as executive food editor for the America’s Test Kitchen cookbook division.
