Sam Zien, known as Sam the Cooking Guy, is a Canadian-born television cook and cookbook author, based in San Diego, California. ==Television career== Zien's career on television began after quitting his job at a San Diego biotech company. In 2001, after a poorly timed effort to begin a career in travel television— that was unfortunately derailed by the September 11 attacks—he switched his focus to a cooking show. He produced his own test screening and distributed the tape to local San Diego television stations.〔〔 San Diego's Fox affiliate XETV-TDT offered him a 2–3 minute slot during its morning news program. The job was unpaid—a situation that changed after his work earned a Regional Emmy from the National Television Academy's Pacific Southwest Chapter.〔 In January 2005, Zien moved to County Television Network (CTN), San Diego County's public-access television, after CTN offered him a half-hour time slot on their station. His ''Sam the Cooking Guy'' show spread to other cities through agreements with sister cable companies; his work was recognized with more Regional Emmys and a book deal from John Wiley and Sons.〔 Zien's next break came from the Discovery Health Channel, where he had a show call ''Just Cook This!''〔 On May 23, 2011, Zien premiered ''The Sam Livecast'', an Internet cooking show originating from his home kitchen. Its thrice weekly episodes feature food-related and other subject matter, After 200 live episodes, the production switched to a live-to-tape format. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sam Zien」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
