Pizza Talk: Laura Meyer, The Protege’ Comes into Her Own
Laura Meyer has worked with Tony Genignani for many years and is both a protege’ and a prodigy. In this fascinating conversation, Laura talks about her personal journey and the process of finding her own award-winning “voice” while also helping Tony build one of the most important pizza brands and training programs in the world. Laura is also one of a growing number of women stars in the pizza community (and we’ll be meeting with others in the coming episodes). But, suffice it to say, in a world historically dominated by men, Laura can hold her own as a star in her own right, and represents the next generation of future pizza yodi’s as a link in the transmission of knowledge for those who follow after her.
