David Ramsey

David Ramsey teaches third graders at Victory Youth Training Academy in New Orleans’ Ninth Ward. His work has been anthologized in DA CAPO BEST MUSIC WRITING, BEST FOOD WRITING, and CORNBREAD NATION. While cooling off this summer with Hansen’s Sno-Bliz sno-balls, Ramsey will be reminded of his worst summer job—counting pallets in a meat freezer—where a co-worker resigned by leaving the note “Too cold.”
