...little since the first segment of The French Chef went out over the Boston area's WGBH-TV on Feb. 11, 1963. Only this time, as the camera closes in on stockpot and saute pan, cleaver and colander, the mistress of cuisine is not demonstrating the joy of Gallic cooking. Dinner at Julia's, her new 13-part public television series, which will start in October, celebrates American cooking, ingredients and wines with such dishes as poached Alaska salmon, duckburger with wild rice, California fish stew, braised stuffed bottom round of beef, New Orleans crayfish bisque...

...then, there have been 105 other cover stories devoted to French individuals or events. Last week, inaugurating TIME's 60th anniversary, all those covers went on exhibit at Paris' Georges Pompidou Center. Titled "America Looks at France, TIME 1923-1983," the exposition not only chronicles 20th century Gallic history, but also documents TIME's interest in the personalities and preoccupations of the French...
