Norman Woolworth

Norman Woolworth is a retired corporate executive, and The Lafitte Affair is his first novel. A graduate of Tulane University, Woolworth maintains an abiding fascination with the City of New Orleans, which he visits as frequently as he is able. Like his protagonist, Bruneau Abellard, Woolworth appreciates nothing so much as a great meal, paired with a well-chosen wine, shared with close friends. Unlike Bruneau, Woolworth enjoys hiking, active vacations and exploring the natural world. A journalist before embarking on a three-decade career in Corporate America, Woolworth holds a M.A. in English Literature from the University of Virginia. A father of three grown children, he resides in Charlottesville, Virginia, with his wife Lori and their blue-blooded mongrel, Nola.
