Some of their manuscripts featured economic dynamics, others military tactics or long-term strategies, still others accredited victory to the brilliance and character of generalship, or to the individual heroics in t

    Michael Morra Ph.D.

    Throughout his 45-year career in academics, aviation, and business consultation, Michael Morra, Ph.D. always found himself at the "cutting edge" of the American Experience. In the 1950s, he was employed by the Univac Company (Sperry Rand) to teach programming to major corporations for the Univac I and II systems. These were the first, commercial computers in business history. In the '60s, Dr. Morra was invited to join a NASA crisis-team of national scientists in Houston, TX. After three astronauts were killed in January 1967, a capsule explosion, this quickly assembled team was assigned the objective to develop operational models to aid the escape and rescue of astronauts who were marooned in Outer Space. The now-famed Apollo XIII flight, featured on film by Hollywood's Tom Hanks, validated the results of the report. In part, this project was directed by Dr. Harold Urey, a 1934 Nobel Bell Prize winner. In the 1970-80s, Morra became a ranking manager on shift-duty in the operation of Kansas City International Airport. While on shift-duty, Morra was responsible for the safety and well-being of thousands of passengers and employees. His management activities included the resolution of 2-3 major and minor emergencies, which unexpectedly occurred on every shift. Since the year 1984, Dr. Morra consulted for a variety of organizations through his firm, 21st Century Marketing Company.Michael Morra received a B.S. in econometrics, at New York University, NY, NY, 1957; an M.A. in Psychometrics, Columbia University, NY, NY, 1959; and a Ph.D. in Behavioral Science, at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, TN, 1965. His formal research and teaching style was set at the "leading edge" of the techno/cultural/commercial dynamic of the American culture. His books include Genetic-Based Democracy, NOVA Publications, NY, NY, 1998, and The Dawn of Bio/Politics, Authorhouse, Bloomington, IN, 2008, add to these professional experiences, Morra: (a) had published topics in macro/genetics, apropos to the socio/politics of the American democracy; (b) taught coursework and seminars at the undergraduate and graduate levels across a span of 35-years; and (c) served the community for 10-years as a docent at the internationally renowned Nelson-Atkins Art Museum, located in Kansas City, MO.Dr. Morra's interests also focused upon the "genetics of socio/politics" as they might impact a demographically diverse democracy a 21st-century idea, which time has come and can't be resisted. And, as a long practicing Evangelical Christian, Dr. Morra writes on the role played by the Judeo/Christian Code, i.e. The Moral Evolution of Western Man, in the course of the past 2000 years.
