From WYES - New Orleans' storyteller - this is Literary New Orleans, a podcast looking at the locally-written word over three centuries of history, based on the WYES-TV documentary "Literary New Orleans," produced and hosted by Peggy Scott Laborde. It features interviews with Walter Isaacson, Maurice Carlos Ruffin, T.R. Johnson, Dr. Kenneth Holditch and Thelma Toole. This "Literary New Orleans" podcast was produced by WYES and made possible by the Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities, which partners with communities, institutions and individuals to explore Louisiana's past, reflect on our present and imagine our future.
