Remembering Michael Murphy


We are very sad to announce the passing of Michael Murphy, Co-Author of 111 Places In New Orleans That You Must Not Miss, on October 19, 2017. Our heartfelt condolences to out to his family, his friends, and his colleagues around the world.

MIchael wrote in the introduction to this book, "Unlike most urban hubs, New Orleans is less about consumption and more about experiences. You need to jump in and participate." It seems as though Michael made a habit of following this excellent advice.

Read more about Michael on this website created by his family. If you knew him and would like to share a memory, please do so on this site. His family is gathering memories and stories for a memorial event they are planning. They will be posting information on the site as the plans come into focus.

We are grateful for Michael's wonderful, witty, and enthusiastic portrait of New Orleans in the chapters of one of our most beloved guidebooks.
