Meet Billy "Morse Code" Morrissey in CLOSER TO HOME
William "Billy" Morrissey had worked with Shaw at Soho Sound, and he was also part of the team that relocated to New York to set up SSNY. He was Shaw's hire at Soho Sound. He abandoned New York and followed Shaw to Louisiana and was now his tech guy. Billy had grown up in County Kilkenny, Ireland and was seven years Shaw's junior. He had a more privileged life in Gowran than Shaw had ever known in Glasgow, raised in a middle class home, and educated at the prestigious Trinity College in Dublin. He was smart and a technical miracle worker, able to manipulate anything electronic at his pleasure, and command computerized technology with ease, earning him the nickname, "Morse Code," at Soho Sound. Shaw rarely called him that anymore, unless he was trying to twist him up. He simply called him Billy. He was one of Shaw's closest friends.
