The Kids Are Alright - Out to Lunch - It's New Orleans

Published: Jan. 24, 2019, 6 a.m.

b'Show business has all kinds of folklore and superstitions. One of them is, "Never work with pets or kids." Not because entertainers don t like pets or kids, it s because they don t want to be up staged by them. Peter Ricchiuti s guests on today s Out to Lunch are both entertainers who have chosen to ignore this advice. They re not just working with kids, they re working for kids. Ann Mahoney is a successful TV and Movie actress. You might recognize her from The Walking Dead or any of the more than 30 movies she s been in. Ann is augmenting her acting career with a kids clothing company, called Peeky Designs. Ann is the clothing designer and owner of the company. CR Gruver is a successful musician. As well as being a sought after piano player, he s a member of super group, The New Orleans Suspects along with members of the Neville Brothers and James Brown s band. CR is augmenting his career as a piano player by founding the local chapter of School of Rock. School of Rock is a nationwide music school, popularized by the Jack Black movie and Broadway show of the same name. There s no business like show business. Except maybe children s fashion and music school. Photos over lunch at Commander s Palace by Jill Lafleur.
