Bio
Michael Morton was born in Texas, grew up in California, and moved back to Texas in high school. While living in Austin, in 1987, Michael was convicted of murdering his wife—a crime he did not commit. He spent almost twenty-five years in prison before being exonerated in October 2011, through the efforts of the Innocence Project, pro bono lawyer John Raley, and advances in DNA technology. Michael is now remarried and lives on a lake in rural East Texas, relishing and appreciating what others may take for granted.
