Geraldine Gilliland, Neighbor

I have lived in Malibu's Corral Canyon  for almost 18 years now. I am executive chef and owner of two restaurants in Santa Monica, Lula Cocina Mexicana and Finn Mc Cool's Irish Pub. I also teach cooking classes and have written a James Beard nominated cookbook "Grills and Greens". I just founded Chiquita's Friends, a 501 C 3 agency dedicated to supporting and raising money  for organizations that strive to stop cruelty to animals and "give hope to the forgotton, rejected and neglected". I am very active in the communtiy especial after the devastating Corral Canyon Fire.
