Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox person Harry Morton (April 7, 1981 – November 23, 2019) was an American restaurateur and founder of the restaurant chain Pink Taco. Morton was a former owner of the nightclub The Viper Room.[1]
Morton was the son of Peter Morton, co-founder of the restaurant chain Hard Rock Cafe, and the grandson of Arnie Morton, founder of the restaurant chain Morton's The Steakhouse.[1] His mother was fashion model Paulene Stone and his maternal half-sister was bounty hunter Domino Harvey.[2]
On November 23, 2019, Morton was found dead at his home in Beverly Hills, California. The cause of death was sudden cardiac arrest due to undiagnosed coronary artery disease.[3][4]
Following his death, the company released a statement calling Morton "a visionary and restaurateur ahead of his time," and adding that "his contributions, both professionally to our brand and personally to those he worked with, were numerous."[5]
In the post-credit scene of the 2021 film The King's Man, he is called "a true gentleman who led by example, helped others and knew his duty."[6]
