Shannon Perri Reflected On The Legacy of Neiman Marcus

For Texas Highways, Shannon Perri wrote about how Neiman Marcus shaped the fashion industry, Dallas, and her own family history. The piece reflects on how Perri’s great-grandmother worked at Neiman Marcus. 

Perri recounts her experience visiting a Neiman Marcus building. She writes, “As I find myself at the steps of this legendary building, the weight of history bears down. I linger by the glass doors, eavesdropping on a family lamenting the store’s future.” 

Perri’s writing has appeared in Texas Observer, Joyland Magazine, and Sycamore Review.
