Growing up in Philadelphia, Lieberman started cooking with his dad when he was seven. His family had two kitchens, and he quickly learned what was the best way to bake his cakes. Lieberman improved his kitchen skills greatly during a year before college, learning from a cook in Italy and studying local food in France. At Yale, he was known for throwing dinner parties, single-handedly cooking while making drinks for many friends. Just for fun, he and some friends decided to tape a show about his cooking. Lieberman was a real college student showing his classmates how to do things like making drinks. That helped the show become very popular among the students. They would stop Lieberman after classes to ask for his advice on cooking. Tapes of the show were passed around, and then his name went to the Food Network.

Food Network producer Flay hopes the young cook will find a place on the network television. He says Lieberman’s charisma（号召力） is a key. “Food TV isn’t about food anymore,” says Flay. “It’s about your personality (个性) and finding a way to keep people’s eyeballs on your show.”

But Lieberman isn’t putting all his eggs in one basket. After taping the first season of the new show, Lieberman was back in his own small kitchen preparing sandwiches. An airline company was looking for someone to make tasteful, cheap and easy-to-make food to serve on its flights. Lieberman got the job.
