Who: Glen Abbott, a NolaVie contributor who writes about New Orleans people, places and events — many of them from the back of his motorcycle. Visit his blog at www.TravelinGringo.com.
Film by: UNO student and filmmaker Brittany Milligan
Editor’s Note: NolaVie partners with students of UNO professor László Zsolt Fülöp, pairing them with artists, non-profits, environmental groups, and cultural entities to facilitate a live curriculum that results in a short documentary. In this short doc entitled, “Travelin’ Gringo,” UNO documentary filmmaker Brittany Milligan interviews Abbott about his wanderings and his writings.
The Film and Theatre Department of UNO and NolaVie present this series of short films produced by the students in Laszlo Fulop’s documentary class. Read Renee Peck’s column about the program here.
