What is Alton Brown's Background?

Answer 1

Brown lives in Marietta, Georgia with his wife DeAnna, his daughter Zoey, a basset hound mix named Matilda, and an iguana named Spike, although he claims to have disposed of a nasty lizard in a Good Eats episode. A few members of his extended family have appeared in Good Eats (such as his late grandmother, Ma Mae, his mother, and daughter, Zoey, who is known on the show as "Alton's Spawn"), but most of his "family" portrayed on the series is made up of actors and the show's production crew. DeAnna Brown is the co-executive producer of Good Eats, but has never appeared on an episode.
