I think of Anne, and I think of the hair. So signature, so distinctive. But Anne Burrell was not the proverbial pretty face. She was a wife, a mother, a chef and had the respect of the food community she so loved.

She was found at her home in Brooklyn, New York Tuesday morning, with an official cause of death to be determined.

But we’ll always remember her for her work on “Worst Cooks in America and much more. Rest easy Anne.
