Father Dominic Garramone: Peru, Illinois
Fr. Dominic Garramone is a Benedictine priest of Saint Bede Abbey in Peru, Illinois who has introduced millions of viewers to the joys of baking and sharing bread as host of the highly successful public television series, Breaking Bread with Father Dominic. Although clearly a baker of considerable talent, his casual, humorous demeanor demystifies the art of bread baking. He often says: "Remember, it's bread. It's going to forgive you."
He holds a B.A. in Communications Arts from Saint Mary's University in Minnesota, and an M.A. and an M.T.S. from Saint Meinrad School of Theology in Indiana. Known as "Papa Dom" to his students, he is chaplain and drama director for Saint Bede Academy, a college-prep high school. Each summer he directs a theatre program for grade school students.
