The Lower 9th Ward, New Orleans,
100 Days After Hurricane Katrina

In Mid-December 2005, I had the good fortune of being one of the first people allowed back into the lower 9th ward in New Orleans, 100 days after Hurricane Katrina. As a result, I have this portfolio of black and white photographs that bear witness to the extent of the devastation in that neighborhood at that time.

Since I was a musician myself and lived in New Orleans many years ago, it has been my intention to use these photographs as a way to bring attention and aid to the Musicians of New Orleans.

Proceeds from all sales of these prints will be donated to organizations assisting New Orleans musicians.

All photographic prints are selenium toned, gelatin silver created through the traditional black and white process and printed on fiber-base gloss paper. All prints are archivally mounted and matted, white mats with black aluminum frames.

Print # 26 was granted an award of excellence and published in the book Best of Photography Annual 2006 - presented by the editors of Photographers Forum Magazine.

A very big thank you to all the generous people who have contributed to this project. Your generosity helps keep the music alive in New Orleans.
