About the Author

As president of Hallelujah Productions, Morris had the privilege of producing The Original Drifters’ first two gospel CDs. He has also published a coffee-table book, Ole Miss at Oxford: A Part of Our Heart and Soul . Morris and his wife, Camille, have been married for 47 years and have two grown daughters and five grandchildren.
