creator danny brooks

Chef Danny Brooks is the creator, co-writer and chef instructor for PLAY WITH YOUR FOOD!©. He has worked at some of the world's best restaurants, attended one of the world's best universities and grows one of the world's best beards.

Chef Danny has also always loved food. Ever since he was six years old, all Danny wanted to do was cook and eat. Now that he's an "adult", all Chef Danny wants to do is be six years old.  And cook and eat.  Or at least just eat.  His favorite food is ice.  Seriously.

art director emily jan

Emily Jan makes things. Like puppets, theatre scenery, transparent taxidermy sculptures, knit graffiti, websites, and the odd article of clothing. She's often on the road with a camera and a sketchbook and takes her tea like the Brits. She also teaches art and design in the Bay Area and in Oaxaca, Mexico. And she bakes a mean loaf of ciabatta.

Emily has two degrees in making – one from the Ivy League and one from a mostly respectable art school. She loves to eat biltong and cherimoyas. Just not simultaneously.

music / sound kevin mckeever

A musician since age 6, Kevin plays a multitude of instruments and has worked in pretty much every entertainment genre imaginable since arriving in Los Angeles in 1999. He has contributed to Emmy nominated TV soundtracks, Oscar nominated Film soundtracks, toured the globe with Grammy winning artists. Kevin is known as "the guy who makes stuff work" to the many people who keep him on their speed dial.

He currently lives with his 2 cats, Arthur and Trillian, their favorite food is sliced turkey breast.
