He built his musical chops singing gospel in church, graduating to late-night gigs on the city’s backstreets. He shed his surname, Kador, for the radio-friendly tag K-Doe. He coined his own dialect, heavy on hyperbole, and created his own pantheon, placing himself front and center: “There have only been five great singers of rhythm and blues—Ernie K-Doe, James Brown, and Ernie K-Doe!” Decades after releasing his one-and-only chart-topper, he crowned himself Emperor of the Universe. More than 10 years after his death, lovers of New Orleans music remain his loyal subjects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn its broad outlines, K-Doe’s story parallels that of his beloved, beleaguered city. He rose, fell, and rose again, weathering storms and lingering long after most considered him down for the count.

Richly illustrated and compellingly narrated by author Louise C.

In the 1920s she enrolled in the art school of the of Arts and Crafts Club, the center of artistic interest in New Orleans from the late 1920s to the late 1940s. Immediately, art columnists took notice, marveling at the discovery of a previously unknown talent in their midst. One New Orleans critic commented in 1927, “The paintings of Miss Josephine Crawford aroused a great deal of interest not only for their exceptional merit and individuality but also for the fact that this is the first year that Miss Crawford has done any sort of painting.” \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the winter of 1927-28 Crawford studied in Paris with André Lhote at his academy in Montparnasse, a pivotal time in her development as an artist.

The son of Desirée Marcos, a property-owning free woman of color, and John Thomas Hudson, an English merchant, ironmonger, and ship chandler, Hudson took up his career in painting after a brief stint as a tailor's apprentice in the mid-1820s. He trained first in New Orleans with itinerant miniaturist Antonio Meucci and later in Paris with well-known artist Alexandre Abel de Pujol.

Another passed through the hands of one of Louisiana's most important early art collectors.

Founded by Professor Robert Bray of MTSU, the Review is the only regularly published journal dedicated to the work of this preeminent American playwright. A movie still from THNOC’s extensive Fred J. Todd Tennessee Williams Collection-featured on the cover of this year’s journal-captures Elizabeth Taylor in the 1959 hit Suddenly, Last Summer. The image complements an essay by Irene Morra (Cardiff University, Wales) on the 1958 play that inspired the movie. Cinematic adaptations are the subject of another essay in the journal, by R. Barton Palmer (Clemson University), coauthor with Bray of Hollywood’s Tennessee: The Williams Films and Postwar America. Best known as a dramatist, Williams was also a prolific author of short fiction, as analyzed in Review pieces by Laura Torres Zúñiga (University of Granada, Spain) and Jacqueline O’Connor (Boise State University). Two other essays take a closer look at the method behind Williams’s masterworks: Sophie Maruéjoules-Koch (University of Lorraine, France) compares his plays to Jackson Pollock’s canvases, while Alexander Pettit (University of North Texas) traces the multistage evolution of the darkly comic Kingdom of Earth. In addition to scholarly works, the journal includes a theater review by Bess Rowen (City University of New York) and an assessment of the playwright’s engagement with Cold War politics, as transcribed from a panel discussion at the 2013 Tennessee Williams Scholars Conference.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePUBLISHED BY THE HISTORIC NEW ORLEANS COLLECTION, IN COLLABORATION WITH MIDDLE TENNESSEE STATE UNIVERSITY\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"THNOC PUBLICATIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36600075813016,"sku":"5983","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/5528\/4888\/products\/2014twr.jpg?v=1602796095"},{"product_id":"fine-thnoc-book","title":"A FINE BODY OF MEN","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA Fine Body of Men\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Orleans Light Horse, Louisiana Cavalry, 1861-1865\u003cbr\u003eThe Historic New Orleans Collection 2014\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSoftcover • 6\" × 9\" • 304 pp.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e28 b\/w images\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eISBN-13: 978-0-917860-67-6\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs armies formed across the country in early 1861, the call to the colors sounded and volunteer groups began to assemble.
