Journalism: Projects: Revisiting New Orleans

Two months after photographing rescue efforts in the flooded streets of New Orleans, I returned with Albuquerque Tribune reporter Ollie Reed to see how, or if, the city was recovering from the pounding it took from Hurricane Katrina. 

We found reason for hope, a French Quarter stirring slowly back to life. But also reason for despair, too, - families salvaging what possessions they could and leaving the city they loved, neighborhoods that looked as if they might never live again, a city that was a shadow of its once brazen, festive self.
