A New Book By Dalt Wonk and Josephine Sacabo

For their first collaboration in nearly 15 years, Dalt Wonk and Josephine 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.

“Josephine’s photographs portray the rich humanity and odd contrasts of New Orleans — a child in a doorway next to a poster of exotic dancers, two elderly ladies gossiping on a park bench against a background of young cadets at attention, a solitary old man in a wide-brimmed hat gazing out at the fog-shrouded Mississippi.

Dalt’s work shows his wide range as an observer and storyteller, from a powerful profile of novelist John Kennedy Toole to a touching account of the doomed, reclusive Orchard sisters. He has an extraordinary knack for uncovering people’s hidden motives, telling the true tale behind a newspaper’s sensationalist headline, and delving into the complexity of his subjects, whether famous or obscure.” – Jim Amoss
