ABOUT DEBBIE MORTON

Debbie drives the creative vision of Morton Contemporary Art Advisory. Her love of art dates back to childhood when her father, Arnie Morton—founder of the renowned restaurant chain Morton's Steakhouse—filled their family's home with contemporary and classical works of art. 

Debbie would earn a bachelor's degree in literature at the University of Pennsylvania and a master's in comparative religion at Harvard University. This confluence of narrative, art, ethics, spirituality, and culture helped Debbie develop a unique perspective and keen eye for art in its various forms, leading to a successful 15-year career in documentary filmmaking. Morton's love affair with contemporary, European emerging artists began during her professional and personal travels. Initially, she curated for her personal collection, then chose works for friends and relatives. Ultimately, her love of sharing fine contemporary art and her commitment to expanding the range of featured voices in the art world led her to open Morton Contemporary Gallery's two locations in the heart of Philadelphia's chic Midtown Village neighborhood.

Hi @Debbie@mortoncontemporary.com, I believe this section should be included on the about page, beneath the overall business info, but I think this section could use a small over haul. Are there any other professional accomplishments or significant events you could highlight here? Are there any documentaries you'd like to mention that you worked on or public collections you can maybe brag about?
