My Louisiana: Smiley Anders

A new speaker series at the Capitol Park Museum explores behind-the-scenes stories from Louisiana's celebrated personalities, including community leaders, journalists, and statesmen. Who better to kick proceedings off than long-time Advocate columnist Smiley Anders? From Billy Cannon’s eighty-nine-yard punt return against Ole Miss in 1959 to the birth of the Civil Rights Movement and Baton Rouge’s first Spanish Town parade, Anders has seen it all. 6 pm.
