Desmond John Morris FLS (born 24 January 1928) is an English zoologist, ethnologist and surrealist painter, as well as a popular author in human sociobiology. He is known for his 1967 book The Naked Ape, and for his television programs such as Zoo Time. In 1951 he began a doctorate at the Department of Zoology, University of Oxford, in animal behavior. In 1954, he earned a Doctor of Philosophy for his work on the reproductive behavior of the ten-spined stickleback. Morris stayed at Oxford, researching the reproductive behavior of birds. In 1956 he moved to London as Head of the Granada TV and Film Unit for the Zoological Society of London, and studied the picture-making abilities of apes. The work included creating programs for film and television on animal behavior and other zoology topics. Morris's books include The Naked Ape: A Zoologist's Study of the Human Animal, published in 1967. The book sold well enough for Morris to move to Malta in 1968 to write a sequel and other books. In 1973 he returned to Oxford to work for the ethnologist Niko Tinbergen. From 1973 to 1981, Morris was a Research Fellow at Wolfson College, Oxford. In 1979 he undertook a television series for Thames TV, The Human Race, followed in 1982 by Manwatching. Manwatching is the culmination of a career of watching people - their behavior and habits, their personalities and their quirks. Desmond Morris shows us how people, consciously and unconsciously, signal their attitudes, desires and innermost feelings with their bodies and actions, often more powerfully than with their words. A catalogue of human actions, postures, gestures, facial expressions, clothing, and adornments includes explanations of their underlying causes and meanings.
