About Chef Johnny Ciao:
One of the World’s most interesting, innovative, entertaining and humble individuals, Johnny Ciao did not get his start in the culinary world like most so-called chefs. Working as a personal manager, concert promoter and entertainment marketing executive, he always prepared meals for his celebrity friends and clients. Johnny grew up in New York and was an avid music lover. He began his radio career at an early age of 17 on rhythm and blues radio stations. At the age of 19 he was promoting major rock concerts in Florida and Jazz in Atlanta at venues including the Fox Theater, Sunshine Speedway, others whose names have changed. From personal manager to Baseball Legend Henry (Hank) Aaron and many others, he was always ahead of the upcoming trends. He has appeared on dozens of television and radio shows across the USA and Europe. His first book and video called ‘Cooking With Country Music Stars’ went on to sell over 1,000,000 copies. A large portion was donated to the Country Music Foundation in Nashville.
Johnny has spent the last few decades presenting music and food events featuring top named musicians at venues throughout the World from the House of Blues to American Legions Posts to Mar Largo, for a variety of charitable organizations including Make A Wish Foundation, Chi Chi’s Kid, American Cancer Society, US War Dogs, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and too many others to mention.
