I had a deluge of mail when I profiled Edward Miller, a university professor who was part of a network of race theorists publishing outside of his field (economics, in his case), for Gambit Weekly in 1999.

For a couple of years, I was a regular contributor to American Profile, a Parade-type magazine that went into Sunday newspapers in small towns across the U.S. Here’s a link to the site, and you can find my old stories through the magazine’s archive by typing in my name. (Warning: Some of these stories run to the very far side of Norman Rockwell, but I have a lot of mouths to feed – got to bring home the bacon, as Andy Warhol said.)

Besides those I’ve already mentioned, here’s an extensive list of the publications I’ve contributed to over the last six years: The New York Times, Poets & Writers, The Chronicle of Higher Education (The Chronicle Review), Food & Wine, “The Splendid Table” (Minnesota Public Radio), WWNO (New Orleans NPR affiliate), Altitude, Sun Rise, New Orleans Magazine, America West Magazine, American Profile, Gambit Weekly, The Times-Picayune, New Orleans City Business, Informed Sources (PBS program in New Orleans), The Louisiana Weekly, Kingfish, Louisiana Life, Victoria, Where New Orleans, Scat, The Long Island Advance, Link UP, Bridge News (Knight-Ridder Newspapers), St. Charles Avenue, Natives’ Guide to New Orleans, La Prensa, Inside New Orleans.com, Prime Magazine, Preservation in Print; Trade publications and special advertising section contributions in The New York Times Magazine, Adweek Magazine, Advertising Age Magazine, Extra Extra
