Franklin Becker Biography

Born and bred in Brooklyn, Chef Franklin Becker is currently quite busy. Chef Becker has partnered with Cast Iron Hospitality Group whose mission is to give talented chefs the opportunity to own eponymous establishments.

Most recently, Chef Becker was the corporate executive chef of EMM Group, overseeing menus for Meatpacking hot spots Abe & Arthurs, which specializes in steak and chops; multi-level seasonal seafood concept CATCH, with Top Chef Season three winner, Hung Huynh; and Lexington Brass, a Midtown American bistro. Prior, Becker served as executive chef of such beloved Manhattan-based restaurants including Capitale, Brasserie, and Local as well as Trinity at the Tribeca Grand Hotel.

A seasoned chef, Becker was named a Rising Star by StarChefs.com in 2006 and winner of The Burger Bash at the New York City Wine + Food Festival in 2011. Throughout his career, Becker has received glowing reviews from such high-profile writers as Gael Greene of New York Magazine, William Grimes of The New York Times, who wrote that Becker has “a talent for delivering big, punchy flavors,” and while at Capitale in 2003, Esquire’s John Mariani named it a Best New Restaurant.

At the age of 27, Becker was diagnosed with type II diabetes. The diagnosis transformed his cooking style. Becker learned to use simple ingredients to create dazzling dishes that are healthy and flavorful. He would go on to author two cookbooks, "The Diabetic Chef," a book packed with recipes that meet the nutritional requirements of diabetics and the discerning taste of the gourmet cook. The second, which Becker co-authored, is entitled "Eat & Beat Diabetes with Picture Perfect Weight Loss" and serves as a visual program to prevent and control diabetes.

In addition to all of his successes in the restaurant world, Becker is also the organizer and chairman of Autism Speaks to Wall Street, a Celebrity Chefs Gala that will be hosted this year by Iron Chef Michael Symon. With his eldest son Sean on the Autistic spectrum, Becker feels as if it is his duty to educate and raise awareness about the condition. The gala has proven to be a massive success, extending its reach well beyond celebrity chefs to include musician Harry Connick Jr., who entertained a crowd of highly-regarded businessmen and world-class chefs. To date the event has raised $9 million for the Autism Speaks charity.
