The food of 2019 may not taste as good as the food of 2018, and that's because the famous chef Anthony Bourdain won't be around to cook it for us. Bourdain's talents for engaging with people and communicating his passions were every bit as big as those he had for cooking, and Bourdain could count a number of successful books on his resume alongside his many television appearances. He was also a popular figure on the speaking circuit.
Despite a lifetime of success, which he relayed on to charities with a series of good deeds that went unknown until after he died, it seems depression treats everybody equally. Bourdain took his own life in a hotel room at the age of 61 this past June, leaving friends and fans stunned and heartbroken. His friends have compiled a biography of him, which will be released next year.
