Must-See Museum Exhibits in New Orleans This May

The article highlights two must-see photography exhibitions in New Orleans this May. The New Orleans Jazz Museum presents "Less is More: The Photography of Steve Rapport," which opened April 21 and combines Rapport's earlier rock 'n' roll photography with new, emotionally charged portraits made since he moved to New Orleans—the first time both bodies of work are shown together. Meanwhile, the Ogden Museum is hosting "Herman Leonard: Images of Jazz" (through July 12), featuring the legendary photographer's iconic images of jazz musicians from the bebop and cool jazz eras, including a print of Ella Fitzgerald. Leonard lived in New Orleans later in life, and the Ogden Museum protected his negative archive during Hurricane Katrina.
