The article profiles Padma Lakshmi, an Indian-American cookbook author, actress and former model. Born in India and transplanted to New York with her mom by the age of four. Her modeling career began with an encounter in a Madrid café in Spain. Padma eventually migrated across Europe, settling in for a six-year stint in Milan, Italy, where her modeling career exploded. Things happened fast for Padma back in the U.S. where she published her first book, "Easy Exotic," which won Best First Book at the Versailles World Cookbook Fair in 1999.
