Born on 9.26.50 in New York City, Levin was a Contributing Photographer at Life Magazine in the 80’s while living in New York City. His work appeared in Time, People, National Geographic, GEO, Stern. Paris Match, Newsweek, US News and World Report, New York Magazine, the Village Voice, Readers Digest, Sports Illustrated, Fortune, Business Week, Forbes, Graphis, Jazz News, Next American City and the New York Times Magazine, as well as the cover of Popular Photography. His seminal work on Coney Island was recently featured in the New York Times photography blog “Lens.” Andy transplanted to New Orleans in 2004, three years after 9.11 and a year before the levees failed during Hurricane Katrina devastating the city. His images of the hurricane and its aftermath are in the permanent collection of the New Orleans Museum of Art. In 2006 Levin was a finalist in the W. Eugene Smith Grant competition for a project on life at the edge of the world’s oceans. Levin’s 100Eyes photography workshops have attracted students from all over the world to New Orleans and to Haiti. "Uncle" Lionel Batiste (February 11, 1931 – July 8, 2012) was a jazz and blues musician and singer from New Orleans. He began his music career at the age of 11 playing bass drum with the Square Deal Social & Pleasure Club. He was the bass drummer, vocalist and assistant leader of the Treme Brass Band; known for his kazoo playing and singing as well, and has recorded a CD as a vocalist. Besides inspiring younger musicians with his playing, he served as a role model to many of them: trumpeter Kermit Ruffins calls Batiste his "total influence," saying that Batiste "taught [him] how to act, how to dress, how to feel about life." Internationally, Batiste has served as leader of the daily Moldejazz parade since 2000. He was king of the Krewe du Vieux for 2003.
