About the Author

Established in 1837 by Francis Lumsden and George Wilkins Kendall, this newspaper published in New Orleans is now called the "Times-Picayune" after a merger with a rival paper, the New Orleans "Times-Democrat," in 1914. Its original price was a Spanish coin equivalent to $.0625, a picayune. Today, the paper is part of Advance Publications, owned by the Newhouse family."
