She settled in New Orleans, Louisiana where she continued working as an active volunteer for her alma mater.[2] In 2005, flooding associated with Hurricane Katrina forced Rosenthal to abandon her home and she began to offer assistance to similarly displaced fellow alumnae.[3] Levees.OrgRosenthal began organizing in response to the official narrative and response to the flooding and evacuation of New Orleans.[4] With the help of her son Stanford Rosenthal, levees.org launched on December 5, 2005 and has since been viewed more than 900,000 times. Rosenthal recruited actors Harry Shearer and John Goodman (both longtime residents of New Orleans), to assist with outreach for the group's message. Using video, social media, letter-writing teams and numerous other means, Levees.Org has educated people worldwide on the facts surrounding the 2005 flooding.[5] Rosenthal has been a blogger with the Huffington Post since 2009[6] and with the New Orleans Times-Picayune since 2007.
