Patrick O'Connell, a native of Washington, D.C., began his culinary career at the age of fifteen, working after school in a neighborhood restaurant. He supported himself as a theatre student at Catholic University of America by working as a server. O'Connell started a catering business in the Shenandoah Valley with Reinhardt Lynch in 1972, which eventually became The Inn at Little Washington. The Inn, which is a member of the elite Relais and Chateau Association in Paris, achieved the first perfect score in the Zagat ranking system's history. Patrick O'Connell was nominated Best Chef of the Mid-Atlantic Region by the James Beard Awards in 1993, and The Inn at Little Washington was named Restaurant of the Year.

O'Connell was one of the first inductees into Who's Who in American Food & Beverage. He resides in Washington, D.C. Tim Turner is an expert in the field of culinary photography. Charlie Trotter's and Charlie Trotter's Vegetables are two of his prior novels.

His images have appeared in periodicals such as Food and Wine, Bon Appetit, and Ladies' Home Journal, as well as various commercials.
