NEW YORK - The Julia Child renaissance continues.

Houghton Mifflin Harcourt announced Tuesday that it will publish "As Always, Julia," more than 200 letters between the beloved chef and her agent Avis DeVoto, in December.

The letters were written between 1952 and 1966, when Child rose from being a little known American living in Paris to co-author of the seminal "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" and host of the "The French Chef" television program.

Child died in 2004, just before her 92nd birthday, and was played by Meryl Streep in the recent hit film "Julie&Julia." Millions of copies of her books have sold since the movie came out.
