[edit] Biography

Originally an actor, Morgan had many jobs as a young man, such as a sewing machine salesman, debt collector, and bank clerk. In 1951, Morgan emigrated to Canada where he spent some time working in the Bank of Nova Scotia. In 1955, he emigrated again, this time to Southern Rhodesia. He resumed his acting career there, and was sponsored to return to London after winning a Best Actor award. Upon returning to London, Morgan featured mostly in voice-overs, although he did have a small role in the James Bond movie Dr. No playing the Concierge in the casino who first introduces Sean Connery as James Bond. Whilst between acting jobs in the late 1960s, Morgan began to write seriously and his first novel The Sewing Machine Man was published in 1968. Allegedly autobiographical, the novel revolved around the character Russ Tobin and Morgan has gone on to write a further 18 novels in the series. The latest of the Russ Tobin novels was published in 2005 after Morgan came out of retirement, mainly due to renewed interest in his work via the internet.

Along with George Harrison & Paul McCartney, Morgan is another noted alumnus of the Liverpool Institute High School for Boys which he attended between 1945 and 1946
