Julie Powell, the food writer known for her Julia Child recipe blog, has died. She was 49.
Her husband, Eric Powell, confirmed the news to The New York Times on Tuesday, November 1, adding that his wife died of cardiac arrest on October 26 at their home in Olivebridge, New York.

It was a courageous, generous thing for him to understand how important writing this book was for me, and in exchange for that generosity I have to be responsible for him.”
