Lafcadio Hearn (1850-1904) was a writer and journalist known for his works on Japanese and American cultures. He was born in Greece and later moved to the United States, where he worked as a newspaper reporter. Hearn gained recognition for his writings on Japanese folklore and his contributions to Japanese literature.

There is no evidence to suggest that Hearn wrote an article specifically about St. Malo. Also, while he did spend some time in New Orleans, Louisiana, he did not build homes or establish the community of St. Malo. Additionally, there is no information available to suggest that Hearn caught shrimp in St. Malo.
