He has helped popularize such foods as squid, garlic, and olive oil and regional Chinese cooking. His weekly column on seafood appeared in the Los Angeles Times and other California dailies for a number of years. He co-wrote the highly acclaimed independent film Chan Is Missing, the first feature directed by Wayne Wang. Cronin is married and the father of two children.
