Description
"Natalie Scott is widely recognized as a literary and cultural dynamo of the early 1900s. She was a celebrated writer and journalist in both Mexico and the United States. Her love of New Orleans and theatre led to her role in founding of Le Petit Theatre du Vieux Carre, one of the oldest community playhouses in the United States. The establishment of the theatre was integral to the rejuvenation of the New Orleans French Quarter. During a World War I bombing, she rescued medical patients from the upper floors of the hospital where she worked as a nurse. For this she was awarded the Croix de Guerre for bravery, one of France's highest medals. In her philanthropy, she founded a peasant school and medical cooperative in impoverished Taxco, Mexico, and was credited with bring the first physician to the area. She also opened the Kitigawa House, a pension for artists and writers. Scott's charm, with, and generosity earned her many notable friends throughout her life, including Sherwood Anderson, William Faulkner, Lyle Saxon, and Roark Bradford. This account covers the whole of Natalie Scott's life and works. As such, it is a thorough and definitive example of this outstanding woman's legacy. Natalie Scott was the author of Mandy's favorite Louisiana Recipes, Gourmets Guide to New Orleans: Creole Cookbook, and 200 years of New Orleans cooking, all published by Pelican."--Book cover.
