Dan Morrissey
A writer with an unusual split between practical education guides and a much older adventure tale, this author leaves behind a small but interesting body of work. His books range from helping families and school advisers to a public-domain story of youthful daring around early aviation.

Hooking a sky ride

About the author
Dan Morrissey appears in library and bookseller records as the author of several nonfiction education titles, including Preparing Your Child for College: A Resource Book for Parents and Teaching Clarity, Purpose and Motivation. Descriptions for the latter identify him as Dean of Students at Phillips Exeter Academy and present the book as a hands-on guide for advisers working with secondary-school students.
He is also credited with Hooking a Sky Ride, a short story now available through Project Gutenberg. That gives his catalog an unusual shape: practical, modern school-focused writing on one side and a public-domain aviation adventure on the other.
Reliable biographical details beyond those publication records are limited, so a full personal profile is hard to confirm. Even so, the available sources suggest a writer interested in guidance, motivation, and the excitement of youthful ambition.
