词条 | Charles L. Dufour |
释义 |
Dufour lived his entire life in New Orleans, except to serve in the US Army in World War II in a non-journalistic role. He enrolled at Tulane University for college in 1921, although he commenced his career with newspapers before completing his degree.[3] He ultimately completed his college degree in 1953.[3] Dufour was awarded an honorary doctorate of humane letters by Tulane University in 1978, after retiring as a newspaper columnist.[3] Together with fellow local historian John Churchill Chase, he taught a course on New Orleans history at Tulane University for 25 years.[1] Dufour referred to this course as "New Orleans on the Half Shell" as an acknowledgement of its emphasis on food and culture.[3] Dufour was a member of the gourmet group in New Orleans called "La Societe des Escargots Orleanais".[3] A 1967 New York Times article characterized Dufour as a columnist and historian "who has devoted most of his professional life to the idea that history is news".[4] Selected works
