<br/><br/> In 1916, at age fifteen, Norma Wallace arrived in New Orleans. Sexy and shrewd, she quickly went from streetwalker to madam and by 1920 had opened what became a legendary house of prostitution.  There she entertained a steady stream of governors, gangsters, and movie stars.  She tape-recorded her memories and combining those tapes with original research, Christine Wiltz chronicles not just Norma's rise and fall but also the social history of New Orleans.
