Early life and education

At New York University Geller studied Broadcast Journalism and Hebrew language and literature and graduated Magna Cum Laude, Phi Beta Kappa in May 1999. Geller is a baalat teshuva, having embraced Orthodox Judaism and traditional Jewish religious practice in her early 20s.[4]
Career
Before writing her first cookbook, Geller was a writer and television producer for CNN, Entertainment News, the Food Network, and a senior writer/producer and marketing executive for HBO.[2][3][5]
In 2007, Geller published Quick and Kosher Recipes from the Bride Who Knew Nothing (ISBN 978-1-60094-053-8) (Feldheim Publishers). The book chronicles her experience of choosing Orthodox Judaism, her marriage and learning to cook. In 2010 Geller published Quick & Kosher: Meals in Minutes (Feldheim Publishers).
