Daniel Green’s love affair with Thailand began in 1991, sparking a culinary journey that transformed his life. Once a teenager who struggled with food and weight, he discovered in Thailand that healthy eating could be vibrant and deeply satisfying. This revelation inspired a celebrated career spanning 13 cookbooks, international menu development, and over 20,000 hours on live television across networks like the BBC, Food Network, and ABC. His food brands and appearances have reached millions, while his travels through Asia—particularly Thailand, Singapore, and Malaysia—have continually shaped his philosophy on food and life. Honored with the World Gourmet Celebrity Chef Award and a Gourmand Award, his proudest achievements lie in his philanthropic work. For over eight years, he has championed causes such as the American Heart Association and Ronald McDonald House Charities—efforts made deeply personal by the loss of his son Harry to a heart defect, and inspired by his surviving twin, Georgina.
