Leonce Gaiter
Raised in New Orleans, Washington D.C., Germany, Missouri, Maryland and elsewhere, Leonce Gaiter is the quintessential army brat—rootless, restive, and disagreeable. He began writing in grade school and continued the habit through his graduation from Harvard. He moved to Los Angeles and put his disagreeability to work in the creative and business ends of the film and music industries. His nonfiction writing has appeared in The New York Times, The New York Times Magazine, The Los Angeles Times, The Washington Times, LA Weekly, NY Newsday, The Washington Post, Salon, and in national syndication. His thriller "Bourbon Street" was published by Carroll & Graf. He currently lives in Northern California.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I bought this book because pre-Katrina New Orleans was one of my favorite places. This book gives you a good feeling for the atmosphere of the place and it's a good film noir kind of story.
