“Coldwater Kitchen” Exec Producer Desiré Vincent Levy And Chef Jimmy Lee Hill
The documentary “Coldwater Kitchen” is a story of humanity and hospitality.

Desiré Vincent Levy, an executive producer of “Coldwater Kitchen,” is a communications strategist specializing in issue-based campaigns and impact litigation, and is the co-founder of Detroit Kitchen Terminal, which seeks to reduce repeat incarceration by training workers to thrive in Detroit’s restaurant industry.
