Yoour article on Storyville is very good. According to Al Rose who wrote the book on Storyville the faces were scratched off by Bellocq's brother who was a priest. There are only one or two buildins left from Storyville. Read about the BLUE BOOK published by the Madames who were advertising their grils and their specialities. A most interesting time in the BIG EASY.
nice pictures... too bad the models are depicted as mere prostitutes. Being from New Orleans and a model myself I despise the roles you had your models play. Just because their nude doesn't make them storyville harlots. I do understand your sentiment to bring back the vibe of storyville...it has vanished, along with the era. Maybe your photos should depict something else? hmmm...
Long before creating the HBO show Girls, Lena Dunham was developing an exclusive web series for Nerve.com. We're not saying that being published on Nerve guarantees fame and fortune, but we're not not saying it.
Submit your love & sex themed short film or miniseries to submissions@nerve.com for a chance to be on Nerve - HBO is waiting.
