Hal Abramson

Hal Abramson has eaten his way across the globe as a food festival promoter. At seventy years old, Abramson has sampled cuisines from all over both the United States and the world in general, which makes it very difficult to choose a favorite whenever anyone asks.

Abramson began his career as a food festival promoter while still in his early twenties. After deciding college was not the route his life was meant to take, he never completed his degree and instead jumped straight into building his promotional career. Abramson initially became interested in food festivals and festivals in general when he would regularly attend California’s Gilroy Garlic Festival with his family. He knew as the years went on and the festival’s notoriety drew a larger and larger crowd every summer that he wanted to one day do the same.
