FLASH BACK
Louisville
Magazine
Vol. 44/No. 6, June 1993
On the cover: Yellow! Lots of yellow! Bright,
happy city guide '93. Long before 9/11 or the
Great Recession, and with Gulf War I in our rearview mirror, things were looking up.
Inside: Among other insider tips, we published
a prescient story on the city's emergence as
a foodie capital — led by the likes of Lynn's
Paradise Cafe, which everybody knew would be
around forever.

Outside: Negotiations were under way between
the White House and Mideast leaders Yasser Arafat of the Palestine Liberation Organization and Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin that would lead
to a historic, if feeting, peace accord and Rose
Garden handshake between the two bitter rivals.
The Unabomber made newspapers across the
country, sketched notoriously in dark sunglasses
and a hooded sweatshirt. Closer to home, two big
personalities dominated Louisville news: U of L
coach Howard Schnellenberger, whose football
Cardinals were enjoying unprecedented success,
and mayor-for-life Jerry Abramson.
