Eve Troeh

Eve Troeh was WWNO's first-ever News Director, hired to start the local news department in 2013. She left WWNO in 2017 to serve as Sustainability Editor at Marketplace. 

  • The Prospect 1 New Orleans project is slated to open in November. Dan Cameron, the director of the Contemporary Arts Center, aims to create a citywide, international art event akin to the Venice Bienanle. He sees it as a promotional and healing tool for the city.
  • Moviemaking is an important part of Louisiana's economy and has continued to expand, undeterred by last year's hurricanes. The state has even begun positioning itself as the "Hollywood of the South."
  • Officials in New Orleans plan to demolish four public housing projects -- and build mixed-income developments. It's part of an effort to make sure poverty is not concentrated in a rebuilt New Orleans. But many public housing residents are not pleased.
  • A new video game aims to teach kids about non-violent solutions to conflict. Eve Troeh reports that the game's creator has plenty of experience — he was a leader of Serbian student protests that helped to bring down dictator Slobodan Milosevic in 2000.
  • Gray Line Tours is featuring a new tour in New Orleans, but it's not a fun-filled night on Bourbon Street. The tour company is busing sightseers to parts of the city devastated by Hurricane Katrina, including the spot where a key levee broke and the flooding began. Not everyone is happy about it.
  • As New Orleans wrestles with plans to rebuild, nonprofit groups concerned with protecting the city's unique architecture are helping homeowners salvage what's left of their houses.
