Adam Richman, author, actor and television personality, will be the featured national celebrity guest at the sixth annual John Offerdahl's Broward Health® Gridiron Grill-Off Food & Wine Festival.

Adam Richman grew up in New York and began his love affair with food early on, sampling all of the diverse culinary specialties the Big Apple had to offer. After years of travel and invaluable on-the-job experience in the various restaurants, Adam began hosting "Man v Food" for Travel Channel, which quickly became their highest rated show. Richman has returned to television to host Travel Channel's "Man Finds Food" and NBC's food competition show "Food Fighters." Adam's first book, "America the Edible" (Rodale Publishing), hit stands in 2010 and his second book, "Straight Up Tasty" (Clarkson Potter), was released during June 2015.

Gridiron Grill-Off VIP ticket-holders will receive signed copies of "Straight Up Tasty" and enjoy a meet and greet with Adam from noon – 1 p.m. General admission guests will have the opportunity to purchase signed copies of his new book during the event.  Richman will also be cooking a recipe from his cookbook with John Offerdahl at 4 p.m. at the Toyota Cornhole Stadium and Festival Stage.

Tickets are now on sale.
