She wrote a story not long after the storm about NOLA. If I can find the story, I'll post the link.

Her new book Gumbo Tales is officially released on Tuesday but you can find it now.

It looks great. Also, thanks rocuronium, for the link to that interview. I'd missed it.

She wrote for the Gambit and didn't care to stay in the city after the research for her book was done. It really felt like she was interviewing with a book deal in mind rather than out of sincere interest. What did you all think about it?

Also, as explained in the book, it is her husband's medical training that tore them away. They are trying hard to move back Tue Feb 05 10:16:59 -0800 2008 3365680 162656 rocuronium 2 3368307 Wow--can't say that I agree with ANY of your impressions. She did an oral history with my family on a different project, and I certainly found her genuinely interested, enthusiastic, emphathetic, and professional. And she's a good eater, too.
