LIFTING LOUISIANA

摘要

"What We found OUt from hurricanes Katrina and Rita, what we relearned-something we had forgotten by accident-is how important libraries are," says Mitchell J. (Mitch) Landrieu. Now in his second term as lieutenant governor of Louisiana, Landrieu oversees the Office of the State Library along with the state's Department of Culture, Recreation, and Tourism. The New Orleans native, son of former New Orleans mayor Moon Landrieu and brother of Louisiana senator Mary Landrieu, is part of a dynasty of local Democrats, and he has put his political muscle behind libraries.
