Biography

Hamilton Morris was born in New York City, the son of Julia Sheehan, an art historian, and documentary filmmaker Errol Morris.[1][2] He was raised in Cambridge, Massachusetts. As a teenager, Morris appeared in television commercials, notably a 2002 advertisement for the first-generation iPod.[3] He attended the University of Chicago and The New School, where he studied anthropology and chemistry.[4][5]

Morris's interest in psychoactive substances blossomed in his late teens when he began reading pharmacology information hosted on websites such as Bluelight and Erowid.[6] He began writing for Vice magazine as a college sophomore, creating a monthly print column titled "Hamilton's Pharmacopeia" that evolved into a series of articles and documentaries for VBS.tv focused on the science of psychoactive drugs.[1] He is a correspondent and producer for Vice on HBO, as well as a contributor to Harper's Magazine.[7] Morris frequently consults with media on the subject of psychoactive drugs and conducts pharmacological research at Saint Joseph's University in Philadelphia[1][8][9] with an emphasis on the synthesis and history of dissociative anesthetics.[10][11][12][13]
