Sheila T. Stroup (born 1943, Covington, Louisiana) is a "Living" section columnist for the New Orleans ''Times-Picayune''. Her column, rather than dealing with the celebrated news events of the day, invariably has to do with perceptions of the otherwise-unnoticed aspects of life, particularly in her native Northshore Region. Part of her style is to refer to her husband Merwin by his surname alone, ''Stroup''.〔(Sheila Stroup’s site ) with the ''Times-Picayune''.〕 A frequent topic for Sheila Stroup is dogs.〔''E.g.'', ("Special dog finds special new home" ) in ''Times-Picayune'', 2009 February 01.〕 In 1999 her dog Harry was elected Grand Duke in the Canine Court of the Mystic Krewe of Mardi Paws.〔(Grand Duke "Harry" Stroup in the Mystic Krewe of Mardi Paws 1999 Canine Court. )〕 Stroup was a featured speaker on the 1996 Business Week program at Southeastern Louisiana University, of which she is alumna. For her fundraising efforts to benefit charitable and not-for-profit organizations, in 2004 Stroup received the Will Rogers Humanitarian Award from the National Society of Newspaper Columnists.〔(Will Rogers Humanitarian Award Winners 2004. )〕 In 2009 Stroup was chosen by fellow columnist Chris Rose to serve as the addressee for a series of fictitious e-mails about yet another columnist, Angus Lind, as Rose parodied New Orleans City Councilwoman Stacy Head's e-mails about fellow Councilwoman Jacquelyn Brechtel Clarkson and other subjects.〔See the articles on Head, Clarkson, Ed Blakely, Joseph Cao, Arnie Fielkow, William J. Jefferson, Shelley Stephenson Midura, Ray Nagin, Chris Rose, Tracie Washington, and Veronica White.〕 Stroup and her husband, who live near the village of Folsom (which is on LA 25 due north of Covington), have two grown daughters. ==See also== * Stacy Head * Angus Lind * Chris Rose 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sheila Stroup」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
