  Ms. PELOSI. Mr. Speaker, I rise to salute a great San Francisco 
talent, Ray ``Scotty'' Morris on the occasion of his 70th birthday. 
Scotty Morris is a brilliant photographer, and San Francisco has been 
enriched by the fine work he has done in our City.
  Scotty's work in the fields of photography and photojournalism has 
earned him widespread recognition. He has won 28 national, State, and 
local awards for his photographs, including the well-recognized 
Associated Press News and Feature Award and the San Francisco Press 
Club Award for the best news picture of the year. His works have 
appeared in the New York Times, the London Times, Newsweek, Life, 
Esquire, Forbes, and many other prestigious publications.
  Scotty Morris' photographs of international political leaders include 
every American President from Harry Truman to Bill Clinton, as well as 
Charles De Gaulle and Nikita Khruschev. His portfolio includes well-
known images of film stars Elizabeth Taylor, Sophia Loren, and Robert 
Redford; world icons Queen Elizabeth, Mother Teresa, and the Dalai 
Lama; and sports heroes Pele, Peggy Flemming, and Joe Montana.
  During Mayor Frank Jordan's administration, Scotty was the official 
photographer for San Francisco. His photograph of the Royal Yacht 
Britannia entering San Francisco Bay was presented to Her Majesty Queen 
Elizabeth as an official gift from the city of San Francisco and.now 
resides in Buckingham Palace.
  Mr. Speaker, Scotty Morris' artistic gifts have enriched our City and 
our Nation. It is my pleasure to commend him for his marvelous career 
and to wish him the best on his 70th birthday.
