RARA-AVIS: Re: RARA-AVIS tart noir

A. N. Smith mentions:

"Tony Fennelly is, if I'm not mistaken, one of the "Tart Noir" gang, and she's from New Orleans."

What is this tart noir I've heard about? is it consciously hard boiled dames, as is my impression? Is it a self-imposed term? I'd like to know more, and some of the writers associated with it.

Thanks,
