Robert Carrier MacMahon 
      American-born British restaurateur, food writer, and television personality (b. Nov. 10, 1923, Tarrytown, N.Y.—d. June 27, 2006, Provence, France), promoted simple-to-prepare gourmet cuisine with flair and ebullience, beginning in the early 1950s, when most British households were just emerging from a World War II austerity diet. Carrier produced food articles for magazines, as well as a series of innovative recipe cards and more than 20 cookbooks, notably the best-selling Great Dishes of the World (1963; rev. ed. 1999) and New Great Dishes of the World (1997). His television shows included Carrier's Kitchen in the 1970s, The Gourmet Vegetarian (1994), and Carrier's Caribbean (1996). He also operated two Michelin-rated restaurants and a cooking school until the early 1980s. Carrier later lived in Morocco and in southern France, both of which served as cookbook subjects. He was awarded an honorary OBE in 1987.
