About
Jim Morris was an American bodybuilder known for winning competitions over a thirty-year career. Among the titles Morris won are: Mr. USA (1972), AAU Mr. America (1973), Mr. International (1974), and Mr. Olympia Masters Over 60 (1996). He said he stopped eating animal products except for fish and cheese gradually, starting in 1974 and ending in 1985, and then between 1985 and 1999 also stopped eating both of those; he credited much of his excellent health to his diet. He posed nude for a PETA ad at age 77 in support of the vegan lifestyle.
