Norman Butler, a first time food bank user, and his girlfriend, Cheryl Butler, wait overnight in their car, along with others lined up to receive food at a distribution point in Metairie, LA, on Nov. 19th. Before the pandemic, Norman, 53, flourished in the tourism dominated city, working as an airport shuttle and limousine driver, a valet and hotel doorman. Since March when the normally bustling streets turned silent, the only work he’s had has been as an Uber driver. |
