A few LSMSA alumni authors that I know of:Marc Caplan (Class of 1985)
Rod Dreher (Class of 1985)
Brian Holers (Class of 1985)
Carla Speed McNeil (Class of 1986)
I think you can add Stephen Voss ('86) and James McGufee ('85) to the list. They had to have authored something to get to their levels in academia.

James W. McGuffee (Class of 1985) has published in journals and conference proceedings, as have many of us, but is not indexed on this site.
Oh sweet! It would be great to read some alumni works.
I should also mention The Louisiana School for Math, Science, and the Arts: The First 30 Years by Bill Ebarb.I haven't read it, but I'll bet there is some interesting info in there.
LSMSA has a page for alumni publications. Some interesting finds, there:https://www.lsmsa.edu/alumni/publishe...
They include some works of music and theater, but oddly left out singing drag performer Varla Jean Merman (class of 1987).
Found another: William Rodney Allen. He was a teacher of literature there in 1985 and later. Has written about Kurt Vonnegut and Walker Percy. According to wikipedia, the last thing Vonnegut ever wrote was a postcard to Allen.
