John T. Edge is a prolific, award-winning Southern food writer, TV host, Writer-In-Residence at the University of Mississippi, and a visiting professor at the University of Georgia.
As a graduate student in 1998, Edge helped organize the Southern Foodways Alliance, an organization he led until an unforeseen and unnecessary controversy motivated him to retire in 2021.
Edge is a contributing editor for Garden & Gun magazine and a former New York Times and Oxford American contributor. He also writes and hosts TrueSouth, an SEC Network TV series that profiles people and restaurants impacting the region's food scene.

Edge lives in Oxford, Mississippi, with his wife, Blair Hobbs, an acclaimed author and university instructor.
