NOTES:
- At an early age his entrepreneurial skills and abilities to “think outside the box” began to emerge. If something was broken he analyzed the problem and determined how to fix it. Starting at eight-years-of-age he repaired televisions and pinball machines.
- He learned how to play the piano and at sixteen began teaching hundreds of children to enjoy playing. In addition, he opened a music school to help other musicians teach their craft.
- Morry professionally played the piano (along with his custom-designed, electronic accompany equipment) for cocktail parties and events of the “rich and famous”. He also became a member of the house band of a popular Philadelphia television dance show.
- He attended Temple University for electronic engineering and then the distinguished “Charles Morris Price School” where he received degrees in advertising, marketing and journalism.
- He was mentored by the presidents and top executives of several of Philadelphia’s and New York’s successful advertising agencies and public relation firms. He joined the United States Coast Guard Reserve and was trained as a port security agent and firefighter.
- At age twenty-one, Morry opened Philadelphia’s most advanced twenty-four-track recording studio and worked with the Philharmonic Orchestra and other amazing musicians like Stevie Wonder. He recorded commercials for the Coast Guard and produced a Howdy Doody resurgence album.
- When he turned twenty-four, he took his knowledge of sound equalization and applied it to outfitting all the Philly area discotheques with custom sound equipment which became the standard in that industry.
- Working with children ignited his passion for writing. At sixty eight, he published two best selling books (The Chase and The Ghost of Sheppard’s Inn) within the first year. His third book ( Cosmo) is now being considered for a major motion picture.
