The Outsiders of New Orleans: Loujon Press

Overview

In this documentary, Louise "Gypsy Lou" Webb, now well into her nineties, tells the story of how she and her husband Jon Webb published the avant-garde literary magazine 'The Outsider' from a small apartment in the French Quarter in the early 1960s. By day Gypsy Lou sold paintings on a street corner, and by night she set the type that introduced the world to the beat poet Charles Bukowski.
