Writer Dalt Wonk and photographer Josephine Sacabo arrived in New Orleans in 1970 and made their home in the French Quarter. As they settled into a new life amidst the city’s brewing economic boom and cultural watershed moments, Wonk and Sacabo began chronicling the vestiges of New Orleans as it once was.
For their first collaboration in nearly 15 years, Wonk and Sacabo have assembled a selection of their best journalist work in New Orleans (1970-2020): A Portrait of the City, providing an indelible retrospective on some of the Crescent City’s major cultural landmarks over the last 50 years.
