Contributor Bio(s): Ben-Iesau, Cheri': - Cheri' Ben-Iesau was born in Los Angeles and grew up in a nomadic family who roamed the length of California from San Diego in the south, to Crescent City in the north. Cheri' joined the Coast Guard in 1986 and spent the next 25 years in this same nomadic vein. The Coast Guard eventually brought her to Louisiana in the late '90s where, after marrying a local boy, she threw out the anchor and made New Orleans her home. Cheri's written works are autobiographical. Her first book, The Long September was gleaned from e-mails sent while in New Orleans' City Hall during Hurricane Katrina. Farewell to Egypt is inspired by her family history and the name Ben-Iesau. Cheri' also works as an artist. The cover art on her books is her own and she shows regularly at galleries in New Orleans and throughout the U.S. Features about Cheri' and her art have appeared in Louisiana Homes & Gardens, Professional Mariner, and the Times Picayune.Damonza: - Cheri' Ben-Iesau was born in Los Angeles and grew up in a nomadic family who roamed the length of California from San Diego in the south, to Crescent City in the north.
