Camellia Panjabi was born in Mumbai in 1941 and won a scholarship to study Economics at Cambridge when few women accessed such education. She began her career in the 1950s and became the first Indian management trainee at Unilever and the first Indian woman to serve on the board of a publicly listed Indian company. In the 1960s she worked for Tata consumer products as a brand executive, traveling through India's 25 largest towns and discovering diverse street foods that shaped her culinary outlook. She founded Chutney Mary, a prominent St James's restaurant, and continued to influence hotel dining and hospitality globally.
