In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, the world witnessed the devastation inflicted upon the city of New Orleans. But amidst the ruins and despair, there were also stories of resilience, hope, and renewal. Nine Lives: Death and Life in New Orleans is a powerful and moving book that tells the stories of nine individuals whose lives were forever changed by the storm.

Through intimate portraits and stunning photography, the book brings to life the struggles and triumphs of these nine survivors. There's Dr. Jacqueline Cornish, a renowned surgeon who lost everything in the storm and was forced to rebuild her life from scratch. Harold Jackson, a former heroin addict, found redemption and hope in the rebuilding process. And Susannah Herbert, a young woman who lost her home and her fiancé in the storm, found strength and solace in community service.
