Meeting Mark Schleifstein, NOLA.com
Today we were lucky enough to meet with Mark, an environmental reporter for NOLA.com: New Orleans’ leading website for news and information. He runs their hurricane blog and is solely responsible for reporting news related to all things environmental, weather, levee, and hurricane related.
See his blog here.
He predicted a hurricane with devastating effects like Katrina three years before it hit in his series titled “Washing Away“.

Thanks Mark for the talk! It was great to get an inside look at how a record label is operated in New Orleans. And deep fried pickles are my dream food.
