These posts will be little more than a series of snapshots of a few interesting anecdotes along the road of Murray's early career.

You could easily fill a whole week with that material alone!)<br /><br />Those are just the three careers that I know about. I'm sure he has another career or two squirreled away somewhere.David Apatoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11293486149879229016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18907156.post-3279080891116428172009-04-28T02:42:00.000-04:002009-04-28T02:42:00.000-04:00I love his work!

His critiques were always great, and he was someone whom you always wanted to please. A very generous, and humorous character.innisarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05321227473311180542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18907156.post-61213110342402907532009-04-27T22:27:00.000-04:002009-04-27T22:27:00.000-04:00Murray is the true illustration ambassador- he's g...Murray is the true illustration ambassador- he's got a million great stories!
