Ep.230 Carl E. Hazlewood (b. 1951) was born in Guyana, South America. Parallel to his studio practice, Hazlewood co-founded Aljira, a Center for Contemporary Art in Newark, NJ in 1983. Steeped in modest materials, such as polyester, push pins, map pins and metallic string, form is foregrounded and the slippage between drawing, painting and sculpture places his work in a space that challenges the conventions of each medium, and forces the viewer to experience form on its own terms. Hazlewood explains, “Like a sculptor, I work to find 'shapes' and 'volumes', implied or actual. And like painting, the layering becomes an intuitive search for textures, color and form…I define edges, where things begin and end, where they may find relationships and multiple transitions against or into each other. I think of this as 'drawing' the accumulation of parts into active and resonant connections. Then those 'active' parts are pinned into a final configuration, something that feels properly 'evocative' yet stable as plastic form.” Solo exhibitions of his work include BlackHead Anansi: Constellations at Charlotte and Philip Hanes Gallery, Wake Forest University, South Carolina (2023); Racing Thoughts-Fever Dreaming at Art Basel Miami Beach (2022); and BlackHead Lyricism at Welancora Gallery (2022). Hazlewood has been the recipient of fellowships at the MacDowell organization (2023, 2015); the Brown Foundation at the Dora Maar House, Ménerbes, France (2018); and the Bogliasco Foundation, Italy (2018). His fifty-two-foot-tall wall work, TRAVELER (2017), was commissioned by the Knockdown Center, Queens. Collections include: The National Museum of African American History and Culture, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC , The Study Center, Bogliasco Foundation, Genova, Italy, The Dora Maar House, Ménerbes, France, Ogden Museum of Southern Art, New Orleans, Louisiana, Museu Brasileiro da Escultura, São Paulo - Brazil, The Schomburg Center Collections, New York, NY, The University of Guyana, South America and The National Collection of Fine Arts, Castellani House, Guyana, South America.

In this episode of PhotoWork with Sasha Wolf, Sasha engages in an honest and deeply personal conversation with photographer Christian Patterson. They delve into the creation of "Redheaded Peckerwood" (MACK) and his latest book, "Gong Co." (TBW Books & Éditions Images Vevey). Christian offers a thorough description of his intricate process and motivations for these long-term projects, providing nearly step-by-step insights. He also reflects on his years working with William Eggleston and the nuanced ways in which that experience did, and did not, influence his artistic direction. http://www.christianpatterson.com ||| https://www.instagram.com/christian.patterson/ CHRISTIAN PATTERSON was born in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin and lives in New York, New York. His visually layered work has been described as novelistic, subjective documentary of the historical past, and often deals with themes of the archive, authorship, memory, place and time. Photographs are the heart of his multidisciplinary work, which includes drawings, paintings, objects, video and sound. Patterson is the author of four books, including Sound Affects (2008), Redheaded Peckerwood (2011, Recontres d'Arles Author Book Award), Bottom of the Lake (2015,Shortlist, Aperture-Paris Photo Book of the Year), and the forthcoming Gong Co. (2024). He is a Guggenheim Fellow (2013), winner of the Grand Prix Images Vevey (2015), a New York Public Library Picture Collection Artist Fellow (2022) and James Castle House Resident (2023). His work is in the collections of the National Gallery of Art, Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), J. Paul Getty Museum, Milwaukee Art Museum, Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art and Ogden Museum of Southern Art, and his books are in many institutional artist book collections. He has lectured, mentored and taught widely. He is represented by Rose Gallery, Santa Monica, USA and Robert Morat Galerie, Berlin, Germany.

Walter Hood and Taneshia West Albert in conversation at the Auburn Forum for Southern Art and Culture, a symposium organized by The Jule Collins Smith Museum of Fine Art at Auburn University on February 3, 2024. Walter Hood is the creative director and founder of Hood Design Studio in Oakland, California. He is also a professor at the University of California, Berkeley, and lectures on professional and theoretical projects nationally and internationally. He is a recipient of the 2017 Academy of Arts and Letters Architecture Award, 2019 Knight Public Spaces Fellowship, 2019 MacArthur Fellowship, 2019 Dorothy and Lillian Gish Prize, and the 2021 recipient of the Architectural League's President's Medal Award. Taneshia West Albert is an enthusiastic, award-winning educator and design practitioner in the College of Human Sciences at Auburn. Her research and creative scholarship explore cultural identity, meaning and trauma; diversity and inclusion; and methods to increase intercultural competency in design education and practice. Her design career is focused on design for healthcare environments, corporate interiors and higher education spaces with a unique background in Medical Equipment Planning and Facilities Design and Construction.
When you walk into just about any interior space in the US – from the biggest office building to the smallest apartment – you're almost certain to find art hanging on the walls. And not just one piece. From your doctor's waiting room to your sister's bedroom, you'll typically find multiple works of art. Sure, they're not all paintings, some of them are posters or prints, but at some point, each one had to be created by an artist. Only around 1% of the US workforce are artists. So, with limited availability and high demand you'd expect artists to be highly paid. Most of them, though, are not. The reason might be something to do with the business model by which visual artists get paid. In the film business, actors, directors, and writers pay agents a commission of 10% of their income. Musicians pay booking agents 10% of their income. Directors of commercials pay their business representatives 18% commission. If you're a visual artist, you'll pay your business representative – typically a gallery owner – a commission of 50% of the sale price of your artwork. How does an artist survive in this kind of financial setup? That's what we're asking Anastasia Pelias. Anastasia is a New Orleans born-and-raised visual artist whose paintings and sculptures are in museums and in private and public collections across the country and around the world. In New Orleans you can see Anastasia's paintings in the permanent collections of The New Orleans Museum of Art, The Ogden Museum of Southern Art and The Newcomb Art Museum. You can see her sculptures in St. John Park in Lake Terrace, and on Poydras Street as part of the Helis Foundation's Poydras Corridor Sculpture Exhibition. In case you're thinking all 50% commission art gallery owners must be hard-hearted blood-sucking mercenaries, meet Marguerite Oestreicher. Marguerite owned an art gallery in the heart of New Orleans' art district on Julia Street, until Hurricane Katrina closed it down. In part, Marguerite credits the skills she picked up running her art gallery with her ability to perform her current job as Executive Director of New Orleans Area Habitat For Humanity. NOAHH, as it's commonly known, has 65 full-time employees and builds around 25 homes a year. Their stated mission is, “To responsibly build communities where families can thrive in homes they can afford.” For whatever reason – maybe because it helps bring order to a chaotic world - human beings like to divide by 2. We like to put things in one category, or another. Republican or Democrat. Employed or unemployed. Artist or Businessperson. Renter or Homeowner. Marguerite's mission at Habitat For Humanity is defined by categories: moving people from one to another. From renter to homeowner. To survive as an artist, like Anastasia, you have to defy the categories of art versus business – you need to keep one foot in each world. Across all these categories, the one thing most of us have in common is, we like to live in an affordable home where we can hang our art on the walls.

Hundreds of nurses at University Medical Center New Orleans voted to unionize last week. It's one of Louisiana's largest union elections in recent decades and the first private hospital in the state to unionize, according to National Nurses United, a union representing nurses across the country. Lucy Mendez is a registered nurse at UMC New Orleans in the emergency department. She spoke with the Gulf State's Newsrooms Stephan Bisaha about why she voted for and campaigned to join the union. Last month, the New Orleans Police Department released a draft proposal to deploy unmanned aircraft systems to assist with policing. In other words, the NOPD is preparing to use drones. Critics are concerned the drones could reduce residents' privacy and be used to harass low-income neighborhoods. Nick Chrastil has been covering this story for The Lens and joins us for more on the rollout plan and NOPD's recent drone demonstration. The New Orleans born singer and actor Rahim Glaspy is returning to the stage at the Ogden Museum of Southern Art. He'll debut new music as part of this month's Ogden After Hours event.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR WILLIAM DUNLAP is an artist, writer, arts advocate and commentator with a career spanning more than four decades. His paintings, sculpture, drawings and constructions are included in public and private collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The National Gallery of Art, Mississippi Museum of Art, Corcoran Gallery of Art, the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, Lauren Rogers Museum, Mobil Corporation, Riggs Bank, IBM Corporation, Federal Express, The Equitable Collection, Arkansas Art Center, the United States State Department, the U. S. Federal Reserve, and United States Embassies throughout the world. He is the author of SHORT MEAN FICTION: Words and Pictures, a collection of short stories with drawings, Nautilus Publishing, 2016, as well as LYING AND MAKING A LIVING. ABOUT THE BOOKS - SHORT MEAN FICTION Like tales from the Old Testament, these stories are mean, rampant with sex, violence, and death. All are figments of an active, if not fertile, imagination, and brevity may be their greatest charm. They are fictions through and through. The drawings scattered throughout this volume are not illustrations, but live in the same place the sketchbooks where Dunlap first wrote the stories, forgot them, then found them again. LYING AND MAKING A LIVING Lying and Making a Living picks up where Short Mean Fiction leaves off. It contains more of the irreverent, hard-hitting, exhilarating, ironic, and emblematic prose we've come to expect from Dunlap, whose language is something of a Southern birthright and whose characters are defined by their notorious deeds..
There are around 4 million people in Louisiana. One million of us have downloaded the same app onto our phones. That app is LA Wallet. You probably have LA Wallet on your phone. If you don't, it holds a digital version of your driver's license, your hunting and fishing licenses, and if you're vaccinated against Covid 19, LA Wallet also holds your proof of vaccination. To get the app to work, all you have to do is download it from wherever you get apps. You don't have to upload your licenses or proof of vaccination – that information goes directly to the app from the appropriate departments of the State of Louisiana. LA Wallet is the biggest digital credential app in the United Sates. And Louisiana – the state that's usually at the bottom of every list there is - is at the top of this one. We're the first state in the nation to have a state-approved digital vaccine card, which, by the way, is recognized and valid in every other state. Calvin Fabre is founder and President of the software company Envoc, and creator of LA Wallet. Back in the earlier days of what came to be known as “The Digital Revolution,” e-commerce and social media were two totally separate things. You went to one place online to buy stuff. And you went to another place online to post pictures of what you bought. Those days are long gone. Today e-commerce, social media, and everything else you do online are inextricably linked. If you have a business, you have an online presence. Even if your business is a brick-and-mortar building that requires people to walk in the door, you can't rely on a neon sign to achieve that any more. And that's why an industry of digital marketing agencies has been created. These agencies put the equivalent of your neon sign online - in a place where your potential customers will see it. However, unlike screwing a neon sign to your building, online marketing is not quite so simple. Since 2012, a digital marketing agency called Online Optimism has been designing and installing online neon signs for local companies like Hibernia Bank, the Downtown Development District, and Ogden Museum of Southern Art. Like so many other types of optimism, Online Optimism started out in New Orleans. The agency also has offices in Washington DC and Atlanta. The Managing Director of Online Optimism here in New Orleans is Sam Olmsted. One of the main goals you hear people in online marketing talk about, is SEO. Search Engine Optimization. If I have a business, when someone searches online for something I'm selling, if I have good SEO my company comes up first in search. So there's a greater likelihood a person will click on my business ahead of everyone else. Back in the day when people used the yellow pages to find a business, businesses tried a similar sort of manipulation by listing themselves as something like “AAAAA carpet cleaning” or “AAAAA jelly beans.” All of the “A's” in front of their name meant that in the alphabetical listings, they'd be first. Like the A's in front of a name, only one company can come up first in a Google search. So, I'm wondering how cost-effective SEO is. Say I'm selling jellybeans online -- if I‘m a small business in New Orleans, for what I can afford to pay an agency like Online Optimism, can I expect you to put enough digital “A's” in front of my name to get me to the top of Google search ahead of everyone else selling jellybeans online? On this edition of Out to Lunch, we get SEO explained. Out to Lunch is recorded live over lunch at NOLA Pizza in the NOLA Brewing Taproom. You can see photos from this show by Jill Lafleur at our website. And check out Calvin Fabre's earlier visit to Out to Lunch. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When the pandemic came along, it derailed a lot of plans. Businesses had to shut down with no notice. Some have re-opened. Some are struggling to re-open. Others have been unable to continue and have gone out of business. Peter Ricchiuti's guests on this edition of Out to Lunch are both in a strange, gray area. They both have unorthodox businesses. They both have millions of dollars of investment sunk into them. And neither of them quite knows what the future holds. Julia Bland is CEO of the Louisiana Children's Museum. For 33 years the museum was on Julia Street, in the Warehouse District. In August 2019 the museum opened the doors of its new facility – 56,000 square feet of a brand new, purpose-built construction in City Park. This impressive-looking new museum took over a decade to bring to life. With a price tag of over $47m. On August 17th 2020, Julia had to lay off 40 employees, and close the doors of the museum. The Louisiana Children's Museum will reopen at some point. But when, and what that will look like, is hard to predict right now. For almost 20 years, Kenneth Hoffman helped build and run the World War II Museum in New Orleans. In 2017 Kenneth left that position to build a new museum in New Orleans. Today Kenneth is Executive Director of the Museum of the Southern Jewish Experience. It's the only museum in the United States dedicated to the study of the Jewish experience within a specific region. Or, at least, it will be when it opens its doors. The museum had raised $6m of its projected $10m budget, and was slated to open in a building just off of Lee Circle in October 2020. But the pandemic has forced those plans to change. The building is still there. The exhibits are ready. The extensive collection of artefacts is curated. But the anticipated 40,000 visitors a year are nowhere to be seen. And there's not enough confidence in how long it will take recover, to hire the staff required to run a facility of this size. The ultimate fate of the Louisiana Children's Museum and the Museum of the Southern Jewish Experience is yet to be determined. We know that both these organizations have lost significant revenue and have lost employees, but what is less able to be calculated is the cost to the community of these institutions being closed. We certainly hope that the museums' financial losses can be held at bay, but we equally hope that both of these museums get to open soon for the greater good they bring to the residents and soul of the city of New Orleans.

Photo credit: Cedric Angeles Reoccurring themes of technology and the manipulation of nature can be found in Brian Guidry’s paintings and installations. Guidry's paintings range visually from compressed lines of color to abstract eruptions. The artist synthesizes color, sound and texture to create “digitized” or “dissolved landscapes,” using a specific color palette sampled from a variety of natural sources. The injection of these “natural” colors into geometric planes and constructions creates shapes and voids suggestive of portals or slips in time, leading the viewer over the precipice of the normal, into the magical realism of the uncanny, peculiar and quantum. Brian Guidry lives and works in South Louisiana. He received his BFA from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. He received his MFA in Painting from Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, New York. His work has been exhibited nationally and internationally. Selected exhibitions include; The Bronx Museum in New York; Gana Art Space, Seoul, Korea; the Odgen Museum of Southern Art in New Orleans; The Contemporary Art Center in New Orleans and the National Collage of Arts in Lahore, Pakistan. His work has been featured and discussed in Time Out Chicago, ArtForum, The Times-Picayune, Gambit Weekly, Pelican Bomb, The New York Times, and New American Paintings. His work is in the collections of the New Orleans Museum of Art; The Odgen Museum of Southern Art, New Orleans, LA.; National College of Arts--Lahore, Pakistan; New York Public Library, New York, NY; Pratt Institute Library, Brooklyn, NY; and Paul & Lulu Hilliard University Art Museum, Lafayette, LA.

I was interviewing Dave Alvin when he realized he had sat down next to an ant bed, and while talking to Tav Falco of Panther Burns for this podcast, he briefly hung up on me while the bandmate driving the van got popped for speeding. Such is the glamorous life of the touring musician. Falco made his name in Memphis in the early '80s by occupying the space where punk, art, and the avant-garde intersected. In 1979, he performed a cover of "Train Kept A-Rollin'" on a local television show, and that version prompted the host to ask, "That's anti-music, right?" then announce, "That's the worst sound I've heard come out on television." His Behind the Magnolia Curtain (1982) chronicles that phase of his career, and while his music has always come from a personal place, it was never as out as that again. In 2017, he surprised fans when he released A Tav Falco Christmas, which featured him playing some of the most popular songs in the Christmas songbook in ways that took the songs at face value. It seemed odd at first blush, but the title of his 1994 album--The World We Knew--could serve as his mission statement. His fascination with what we've lost over time was always going to lead him to Christmas music at some point. For more on Tav Falco and Panther Burns, here's a critical essay I wrote in 2012 an interview with him from the same time, and a review of the photography exhibit that he showed at the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, accompanied by a showing of his films, and a concert by Panther Burns.
In the 13th episode of Collect Wisely we are speaking with Pamela Joyner. Based in San Francisco, Pamela and her husband Fred Giuffrida’s collection consists of over 400 works, with a primary focus on abstract works by artists of the African diaspora from the 1940’s onward. The collection is widely recognized as one of the most significant collections of modern and contemporary art by African American artists. In September 2017, Pamela and Fred published a scholarly catalogue of the collection titled, “Four Generations: The Joyner Giuffrida Collection of Abstract Art.” Following the publication, select works from the exhibition have been included in an extensive exhibition, which opened at the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, in New Orleans and has toured to several US museums.
In this episode, we feature TMI Fine Arts Instructor Hannah Cooper McCauley, who joined the TMI community 2016 and brings her talents of narrative photography to our school. Her own photography has been exhibited in group and solo shows at various venues internationally, including the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, the Vermont Center for Photography, Photo Beijing 2014, the 2014 Pingyao, China International Photography Festival, and has been published in Photo District News as well as Aint-Bad Magazine. She earned her Bachelors of Fine Arts degree at Jacksonville State University and her Masters of Fine Arts degree from Louisiana Tech University. Hannah shares her diagnosis of a degenerative eye condition called Optic Nerve Head Drusen and how it has influenced and shaped much of her art. We also talk about her teaching philosophy, some of her students' favorite projects, and why analog photography continues to be important for students even as technology evolves.

Magnum Photos member Carolyn Drake studied Media/Culture and History at Brown University, where she became interested in the ways that history and reality are purposefully shaped and revised over time, and in the ways that artists can interrupt and shift these narratives. After graduating, she worked for multimedia companies in New York but eventually left her office job at the age of 30 to engage with the physical world through photography. In 2006, she moved to Ukraine, where she spent a year examining cultural partitions in a country pursuing a unified national identity - a cloistered Soviet era orphanage near the European border; private, state-owned and illegal coal mining groups vying for influence in the Donbass; Crimean muslims claiming land rights. She made images everywhere, not as much for historical documentation as to come to terms with presumptions stemming from her Cold War childhood in the USA. The experience made her question the journalistic impulse to define, and to look for ways photography can emphasize ambiguity. Based in Istanbul between 2007 and 2013, Carolyn traveled frequently to Central Asia to work on two long term photography projects. The first, Two Rivers, is a poetic exploration of the shifting borders, histories, and life systems between the Amu Darya and Syr Darya rivers. The interconnectedness of ecology, culture and political power come to view in a territory on the edge of global attention. The second Central Asia project is an amalgam of photographs, drawings, and embroideries made in collaboration with Uyghurs in western China. Framed between passages from Nurmuhemmet Yasin's contraband story Wild Pigeon, the book puts forth a counter narrative about China's western frontier, Islam, and the freedoms associated with modernity. In the collaborative images, contrasting visual tools intersect, drawing attention to the awkward, difficult, sometimes beautiful cultural exchange that lies at the root of this series. Carolyn returned to the US in 2014 and is now based in Vallejo, California. She is the recipient of a Guggenheim fellowship, the Lange Taylor Prize, a Fulbright fellowship, and the Anamorphosis prize, among other awards. Her work is in the collections at the SFMOMA, Soros Foundation, Library of Congress, and Ogden Museum of Southern Art. She is an associate at Magnum Photos.
In the latest episode of “Hot off the Press” Chef Panini Pete and partner and HOTPpodcast producer Keith Glines sit down for a spirited conversation with Atlanta-based bartender and mixologist Tokiwa (Toki) Sears about the history of bartending and the resurgence of the craft cocktail culture. Known to many as “Miss Libation,” Toki’s resume includes time crafting c ocktails at the world famous Holeman and Finch, as head mixologist at Southern Art and Bourbon Bar in the Intercontinental Hotel in Buckhead, as well as the renowned One Flew South in Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. During her time alongside Executive Chef Duanne Nutter at One Flew South, the restaurant was named #1 airport bar in the world by Tales of the Cocktail, a spirits and bartender convention held in New Orleans every year. One of the top personalities in the bartending and beverage industry today, Toki’s philosophy of perfecting the art and craft of mixology is using fresh ingredients and quality spirits so that cocktails mirror the cuisine coming out of the kitchen. The trio chatted about Toki’s recent educational excursion to Mexico where she and a dozen other bartenders were selected by Avion Tequila to study the complex process of tequila-making. Toki recently received her BarSmarts Advanced Certification—the acclaimed, industry-leading bartender education program—and is currently studying to be a Certified Spirits Specialist. To connect with Toki follow her on Twitter and Instagram @MissLibation.
Annie Collinge started her career part way through her degree at Brighton University at the tender age of seventeen, assisting esteemed portrait photographer Harry Borden (ep. 15 & 16). She went on to work extensively in the editorial world for publications such as Vice, Dazed, Pylot and The Guardian. She has simultaneously worked on various personal projects which tend to straddle the increasingly opaque divide between documentary and fine art practice. She has had various solo shows including at the Underwater Mermaid Theatre at the Ogden Museum of Southern Art in New Orleans for a project that we discuss in the interview. Her work has been included twice in the Taylor Wessing portrait prize show and she has twice won the Magenta Foundations Flash Forward award. Her most recent project is provisionally entitled Buzz of a Dead Bee. It’s a miniature gallery based in a dolls house antique shop, launching late 2017. The gallery will stage miniature exhibitions by a variety of artists and will change location according to which artist is showing in it. Lined up so far are Lined up so far are Riitta Ikonen, Julie Verhoeven and Rottingdean Bazaar. The project is a comment on how costly it is for artists and photographers to stage exhibitions, since on the internet, it doesn’t actually matter that the work created for it is on a small scale.
To coincide with the launch of his ambitious new project – “All The Black People in Citizen Kane” – artist Craig Damrauer joins the pod to reflect on his life journey and the lessons he has learned: from growing up in Denver as the son of scientists to becoming a baker, a kitchen manager, a food scientist, an adman and eventually focusing on his artistic passions. One of the most important, innovative, brave, honest, genuine and humble artists working in America today, he graduated with an MFA from the University of Arizona and has had his work shown at the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, MCA Denver, the Masur Museum, Los Angeles Contemporary Editions, Pulse Art Fair, and Paul Smith's GLOBE Gallery. Craig is also a writer and has had a number of books published including the magnificent New Math. He has contributed to The New York Times, The Atlantic, GOOD and Medium. ABOUT “All the Black People in Citizen Kane” In the 20th Century's most iconic movie, there are 23 black actors. Two have speaking roles (‘Yes, sir' and ‘Come right in, Mr. Kane'), there are two bands, three loiterers, one wheelchair pusher, three servants and one driver. The actors were un-credited and occupy 2.9 minutes of screen time. Taking inspiration from James Baldwin, the piece consists of 171,744 frames, each hand-erased with the exception of the black actors' appearances onscreen. Almost 4 years in production, it is an attempt, by erasing, to make clear that which is nearly invisible. The work can be seen at the New Orleans Contemporary Arts Center from August 6th – October 1st as part of the exhibition, “A Building With A View”: Experiments in Anarchitecture.

In New Orleans we often take pains to point out what makes us different from other places. It s pretty common to hear comments like, "We re not like the rest of the country" and "We re not like the rest of the South." So it s ironic that two of New Orleans newest icons are representative of The South, and the rest of the country. And they re just a few blocks away from each other The World War II Museum and The Ogden Museum of Southern Art. The World War 2 Museum was declared America s official national World War 2 Museum by an act of Congress. In 2014 Traveler s Choice named it as the 11th best museum in the world. And by 2017 its economic impact on the city is projected to reach a billion dollars. By any standards the World War 2 museum is a big deal. The museum s Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, Stephen Watson, joins Peter on this edition of Out to Lunch. Locally, we refer to The Ogden Museum of Southern Art as "The Ogden." The museum takes the abbreviation a step further, referring to itself as "The O." The Museum holds the largest collection of Southern art in the world and is the leading resource and authority on the culture of the South. The Director of The Ogden Museum of Southern Art, William Andrews, is Peter s lunch guest on this look at New Orelans newest national icons. Although we ll never totally grow out of being known as the home of Mardi Gras and Bourbon Street, The Ogden and the WWII Museum are tipping the balance, giving New Orleans something we never dreamed of as a city intellectual credibility.

Liz Williams had a hand in creating the World War II Museum and the Ogden Museum of Southern Art. Finding herself at the same age Julia Child was when she left the straight life behind and started out following her passion for food, Liz did the same and founded the Southern Food and Beverage Museum. Liz had no idea she was about to become an American pioneer the first person in the nation to found a museum dedicated to the culture of food and drink.
