Profile: Morris Michtom


http://www.jewornotjew.com/profile.jsp?ID=1183

Earlier this week, we ran my profile of Morrie Yohai, inventor of the Cheez Doodle. Today we're running my profile of Morris Michtom, inventor of the Teddy Bear. If there were other famous inventors named Morris, I suppose we'd run those this week too. But Morris the Cat didn't invent anything, so we're left with two. Such is life.

    Who was him? I thought he was Jose Maria Figueres. Do you know who is him?

  2. Doesn't that mean you now have to do Morris the Cat?

  3. Yeah, probably.We have a whole mythology around cats that we'll have to deal with at some point. Kinda putting it off, honestly. If you thought our bear beliefs in this profile were weird, wait'll you hear about the cats...
