...building to rank with the best to appear in the U.S. in the past few years, one to give Frank Gehry ideas. A sparkling enigma, it simultaneously cuts a sharp figure and demurely withdraws behind a camouflaged surface. Behind its blunt façade, glass-walled wedges of garden emerge inside. Herzog likes to compare it all to Kim Novak in Hitchcock's Vertigo, with her cool surface and her plunging secrets...

It was the beginning of a lifetime of involvement with fresh foods. Chez Panisse, the restaurant she opened in Berkeley, Calif., in 1971, ranks among the best in the country. As a chef and food activist, she "may be the most influential figure in the past 30 years of the American kitchen," says Gourmet magazine. Waters, 61, talked with TIME's BARBARA ISENBERG about why consuming and appreciating natural foods is so important...
