The Memphis 10: Protecting our water, celebrating our music, arguing about our basketball
A double-fistful of observations on the month in Memphis
Chris Herrington
Chris Herrington has covered the Memphis Grizzlies, in one way or another, since the franchise’s second season in Memphis, while also writing about music, movies, food and civic life. As far as he knows, he’s the only member of the Professional Basketball Writers Association who is also a member of a film critics group and has also voted in national music critic polls for Rolling Stone and the Village Voice (RIP). He and his wife have two kids and, for reasons that sometimes elude him, three dogs.
The city's greatest asset faces threats, Memphis has some 'High Fidelity' moments, and the mecca of chicken and donuts has an East Memphis location.
