Decorated journalists and authors Alison Fensterstock and Michael Tisserand have recently completed a fantastic biography on a beloved New Orleans cartoonist, illustrator, and music writer. The book, "Bunny Matthews: His Life, Art, and Obsessions," has just been published by the Historic New Orleans Collection.
