Rick Bragg


Bragg is a local celebrity in these parts, where he used to have a shotgun double just down from the store. He recently moved back to his old stomping grounds in Alabama, but is rumored to be looking for another house here in the Crescent City. A consummate story-teller, he's penned the acclaimed memoirs All Over But the Shouting and Ava's Man, as well as a collection of his Pulitzer Prize winning articles from his stint at the New York Times entitled Somebody Told Me.
