The 80th dinner interview was a reunion with several strangers in New Orleans.
In September 2015, roughly one decade after Hurricane Katrina made landfall, I met with three long-time residents of the Crescent City who have previously been featured on Dining With Strangers, hosting a group meal at Antoine’s.
In the first part of a two-part interview, they talk about how the Big Easy had changed by the 10th anniversary of what they call “the storm,” and their predictions for the future. In the second part, I found out what the interviewees — Dr. Brobson Lutz, Mary Burns, and Buzzy “Beano” Langford — had been doing since they were first featured on this site.
