"With six restaurants, three books, two kids, one husband and a James Beard Award to boot Shelley Lindgren isn't resting on her laurels. Born in San Francisco and raised in West Marin, Lindgren is best known for A16, the award-winning restaurant she co-founded in San Francisco's Marina District in 2004. Now, there are four locations of the modern Southern Italian eatery, including a new Napa outpost that launched this spring."
"Wine has long been a passion for Lindgren, who was named Best New Sommelier by Wine & Spirits Magazine in 2004. At A16, she became determined to showcase the food-friendly grape varietals of Southern Italy, eventually earning the restaurant a James Beard Award for Outstanding Wine Program in 2015. Many Southern Italian wine producers attribute their success in the U.S. directly to Shelley, said Megan Glaab, co-owner of Ryme Cellars in Forestville."
