Daniel Morris-Young

Dan Morris-Young is a veteran of the Catholic Press, having warmed the seats of the editor's chair in Spokane, Oakland, Seattle, Little Rock and San Francisco. He authored a syndicated humor column for Catholic News Service for more than three decades, and has written for The Tablet, Huffington Post, Liberty, St. Anthony Messenger, U.S. Catholic, Our Sunday Visitor, National Catholic Reporter, The National Observer, and Mt. Ranier High School's student paper. Others, too. He even won awards.



More germane, perhaps, is that he has also bussed tables at the Pine Shed Restaurant; copy-boyed at The Spokesman-Review; owned and operated a tavern; managed sales at a mobile home dealership; directed an insurance and investment practice; and made much of his family's income under water -- harvesting sea urchins and sea cucumbers in the San Juan Islands and Alaska. Really.
