Evita Mendiola
Author of “The Fulton Fish Market Chronicles”
Evita has been documenting the Fulton Fish Market and it’s history for four years. She graduated from Columbia University after moving to New York City from Texas in 2001. She studied the Fulton Fish Market men and women for their last reigning years at the South Street Seaport for a thesis, and it eventually enveloped her life. She met Alex Brook Lynn and Corinna Mantlo at a knitting group in 2005 and they convinced her the Fish Market was worth as much as she wanted it to be. She desperately misses the old market but is at peace with its metamorphosis. Evita has been working in the Office of Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg of New York City. The film ‘Up at Lou’s Fish’ is based around Evita’s graduating thesis ‘The Fulton Fish Market Chronicles’.
