About

When The Houston Post closed in 1995, Cleverley Stone found herself out of work, along with about 2,000 of her fellow employees.
She ran the wedding section of the newspaper and wrote a Sunday column called "Down the Aisle."
In 1997 she started Cleverley’s Newsletter as a hobby and faxed it to friends who were interested in news about
Houston’s restaurant, hotel and club scene. The faxed version became an emailed newsletter and in 2007
it morphed into her blog at http://blog.cleverley.com, now concentrating on Houston’s restaurant news.

Cleverley knows her way around a menu! Since 2003 she’s shared her love of food, wine and dining on a radio talk show.
"The Cleverley Show" currently airs on Saturdays at Noon on CNN 650 Radio News in Houston.
She also contributes to Houston's Fox 26 Morning News on Fridays, sharing restaurant news and
talking with chefs and celebrities as they cook delicious dishes.

Cleverley was born in New York City, raised in New Jersey and attended the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania.
An avid traveler since childhood, she’s hiked the Jungfraujoch in Switzerland and learned to love Gorgonzola in Italy. 
She learned the fine elements of high tea and how to ride a two-wheeler, that her father purchased for her in London,
around the triple smokestacks of the Queen Mary during a transatlantic voyage from Southampton to New York.

Prior to arriving in Houston she was silver and crystal buyer, and bridal registry director, for the Fifth Avenue department store B. Altman & Co.
She came to Houston to become the bridal registry director for Foley’s department store (now Macy's). She’s written
for Home Furnishings Daily, Houston Metropolitan magazine, served as contributing editor and columnist for Bride & Groom magazine,
restaurant columnist for Inside Houston magazine, and food and wine editor for Me-Style & Décor and Restaurant & Resort magazines.

Cleverley has hosted eponymous radio shows in Houston on KRTS-92.1 FM, Biz Radio 1320, KFNC-97.5 FM and created the popular
“All Things Delicious” features on Smooth Jazz 95.7-The Wave, where she was known as the Diva of All Things Delicious.
"Cleverley's Restaurant Minutes" can now be heard on K-Hits 107.5 FM in Houston.

Cleverley is the chairman and co-founder of Houston Restaurant Week,
an annual charity event benefiting Houston’s End Hunger Network.
