The Marigny, often referred to as the "Faubourg Marigny," is a neighborhood in the city of New Orleans known for its live music scene. Although they share both a love for homegrown New Orleans culture and a name, Marigny, the freelance writer, is not synonymous with Marigny, the neighborhood. Marigny was born in New Orleans and spent much of her adult life there. She graduated from Loyola University with her master's in counseling, however, like many other local New Orleanians and despite her better judgement, Marigny continues to bartend. Since she spends a majority of her time loving the nightlife, Marigny has decided to share her ever-growing bar knowledge with inquring minds and the curiously thirsty masses.
