From Cellar to Shaker | Neal Bodenheimer, Jordan Salcito + Sue Strachan Moderated by: Brett Martin

This session will bring together three industry powerhouses — Neal Bodenheimer, Sue Strachan, and Jordan Salcito — to explore the culture, craft, and storytelling behind what we drink. They’ll discuss the role that hospitality plays in shaping a city’s identity, as well as behind-the-bar insights, personal anecdotes, and a spirited look at how beverages create community — one glass at a time. The New Orleans Book Festival brings the world’s leading authors to Tulane University for a multi-day celebration of their works. The Festival features both fiction and non-fiction and convenes readings, panel discussions, symposia and keynote speeches. It provides an opportunity for outlets, authors and readers to interact with each other in one of the most vibrant and culturally diverse cities in the world.
