Vincent "Vince" Scott Morgan (born April 22, 1969) is a Democratic political activist, community leader and businessman from Harlem, New York. He is a 2013 Democratic candidate for the New York City Council for the 9th Council District. The 9th district comprises Community Board #10 and parts of CB #9 in Harlem. Morgan ran for the United States House of Representatives in 2010. Morgan has signaled his intention to champion the issues of fairness and transparency in the economic matters of the district by calling for an independent audit of the West Harlem Local Development Corporation (WHLDC), an agency charged with overseeing $150 Million community benefits agreement that is part of Columbia University's planned expansion into West Harlem. http://www.dnainfo.com/20111031/harlem/candidate-wants-audit-of-columbias-spending-harlem#ixzz1cPt1aHuE ==Early life== Morgan was born on April 22, 1969, in Chicago, Illinois. He was the only child born to John Ford (b. May 3, 1942) and Sharon Leslie Morgan (b. January 30, 1951). After his father abandoned the relationship and returned to his hometown in Memphis, TN before Vincent was born., Morgan was raised by his single mother in Chicago's Bronzeville community. He grew up in a tough neighborhood on the South side. Educated in an inner city parochial school (Corpus Christi), he was sheltered from some of the harsh realities of his impoverished community. He dropped out of high school at age 16, but with the support of concerned adults, including his maternal grandmother and his mother, as well as his own sense of determination, he turned his life around. After obtaining his GED, he went on to attend Howard University in Washington, D.C. Morgan graduated with a bachelor's degree in business management from the University of Illinois at Chicago and earned a Master’s degree in public administration from Columbia University, in New York. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vincent Morgan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
