J. Robert Wooley, commissioner of insurance for the state of Louisiana during Hurricane Katrina, talks to NU-PC360 about working with the insurance industry in the days after the storm devastated the Gulf Coast.

National Underwriter Property & Casualty and PC360.com present the first of two videos commemorating the 10-year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina.

On August 29, 2005, Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast of the U.S. and caused more than $41 billion in insured property damage. In total, the storm caused between $96 and $125 billion in property damage, destroying an estimated 300,000 homes. The fallout from Katrina has led to significant changes within the insurance and risk management industry.
