Frances Moore Lappé

Frances Moore Lappé is the author or co-author of twentybooks, many focusing on themes of “living democracy”—suggesting not only a government accountable to citizens but a way of living aligned with the deep human need for connection, meaning, and power. She is also the recipient of twenty honorary doctorates from distinguished institutions, mostly recently Indiana University in 2021. Her first book, Diet for a Small Planet, published in 1971, has now sold over three million copies. Its fiftieth-anniversary edition was released in 2021 with features in The New York Times, Boston Globe, and other major outlets. In 2019, The New York Times Magazine interview with Lappé began: “Frances Moore Lappé changed how we eat. She wants to do the same for our democracy.”
