There is some discrepancy in regard to when Julia Child's first show, "The French Chef," began. Some sources (Wikipedia, PBS) cite 1962 while others (Biography, Smithsonian, IMDB) cite early 1963. Her first appearance as a chef on television was as a guest on a book review show in 1962 She attended Le Cordon Bleu cooking school in France in 1948, so it took her about fourteen to fifteen years to get a cooking show after her training.
I found this answer by searching for "julia child" (no quotes) and "the french chef" (no quotes) in Google. All of the sources provide additional information about Julia Child.
