She joins more than 20 other locals on the list, which celebrates artists, entertainers, business people and other newsmakers that have made an impact on the New Orleans community.
Combining their backgrounds in science and medicine, Dr. Rupa Jolly and her husband Dr. Tarun Jolly have helped local investors collaborate with medical innovators and healthcare experts through their nonprofit, Tarun Jolly Enterprises. Their work spans multiple industries across the city, including outpatient treatment, real estate, healthcare and hospitality.

"I am grateful to be a board member of Second Harvest Food Bank as this is such a basic need and no one in this country should go hungry," Dr. Jolly said, speaking of her charitable work and causes.
