Individual who has most of the many and quite varied responsibilities in an enterprise. This slangy Americanism origi- nated
in the
first half
of the
1800s. Alluding
to kitchen
duties, the term is
used far more broadly, as in “Mr. Miller described himself as the ‘president,
chief cook
and bottle
washer’ of
his company”
(New York Times,
Nov. 7,
1992).
