The People Behind the Catch
Behind every local catch are real people with real stories — fishermen, processors, chefs, and the families who keep it all going. Their profiles are the heart of this section.
Matthew Beaudin, Monterey Bay Aquarium
Matthew Beaudin spent years honing his palate by working around the world. From Hong Kong to Rwanda, the West Indies and Cincinnati, he plied his trade and learned local spices and traditions. He’s found a home at the Monterey Bay Aquarium, and doesn’t plan on leaving any time soon.
