The Life and Death of the Legendary Rock Star: Jim Morrison

Military Brat

Thanks to his father’s career in the military, Jim Morrison spent most of his childhood frequently moving around the country. Morrison was always on the go. He was born in Florida but spent his early years living in San Diego. Before third grade, he moved to Virginia, then to Texas, and then to New Mexico all before he was even in high school.

He started high school back in California, but he was back in Virginia by the time he graduated. I would have been so upset if my parents made me move during high school. I guess it’s a cool experience to grow up traveling, but it must be tough to never feel completely settled and knowing that you won’t be in the same place for long.
