Kehidupan awal
Berry was born on March 24, 1935, the second child of three brothers, to Margaret ('Marjorie', nÃÆ' à © e Wilson, 1905-2011) and Alleyne William Steward Berry (1904-1989). Alleyne was a surveyor and planner who served as Mayor of Bath in 1952 and was closely involved in founding the University of Bath at Claverton Down. Mary's great-grandfather by his father's side, Robert Houghton, was a master baker in the 1860s who provided bread to local social workers in Norwich. Her mother Marjorie was a housewife who, at times, helped Berry's father with the books. Her mother died in 2011 age 105.
At age 13, Mary Berry contracted polio and had to spend three months in the hospital. This causes him to have a crooked spine, a weaker left hand and a thinner left arm. He said that the period of forced separation from his family while in the hospital "strained him" and taught him to take advantage of every opportunity he would have.
Berry attended Bath High School, where he described his academic skills as "desperate" until he attended a domestic science class with a teacher named Miss Date, who especially encouraged his cooking skills. His first creations in class were the sponge pudding he had brought home, and his father told him it was as good as his mother's.
He then studied catering and institutional management at Bath College of Domestic Science.

Careers
Berry's first job is in an electric bathroom showroom, and then make a home visit to show new customers how to use their electric ovens. He usually performs an oven by making a Victorian sponge, a technique he will later repeat when in a television studio to test an oven he has never used before. His catchment area for demonstrations was limited to the larger Bath area, which he rode in Ford Popular which was supplied as a company car.
His ambition was to move from family home to London, something his parents would not allow until he was 21 years old. At the age of 22, he applied to work at the Dutch Milk Bureau, while taking City & amp; The gang course at night. He then persuaded his manager to pay him for a professional qualification from Le Cordon Bleu's French school. Temporary transit to France came as a cultural shock; he could not bear not to cry during his first meal, which consisted of horse meat, reminding him of the horse he left at home in Bath.
He left the Dutch Milk Bureau to become a prescription tester for PR firm Benson, where he began writing his first book. He has since been cooking for various food-related bodies, including the Egg Board and the Flour Advisory Board. In 1966 he became the editor of the homemade magazine food, and when he had children, he only took five weeks off at every opportunity, since there was no maternity leave at that time and every time he risked his life. the post is filled by others before he is scheduled to return.

From 2010 to 2016 he was one of the judges on BBC One's The Great British Bake Off with a baker Paul Hollywood, who specializes in bread. Berry says that since working together, he has learned from him. However, some viewers get angry during the first series when a decision is made to make the contestant use one of the Hollywood recipes for scones rather than one from Berry. His work on the show with Hollywood has led the The Guardian to suggest that it is the best reality TV partnership assessment ever. In September 2016, Love Productions announced that a three-year deal to broadcast the show on Channel 4 instead of BBC from 2017 was approved. Co-hosts Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins announced that they would not proceed with Bake Off in their new network.
