Michael Anthony Dorris ( January 30, 1945-April 10, 1997 ) was a prominent American novelist and scholar.

In an article published in New York magazine two months after Dorris's death, a reporter quoted the Modoc tribal historian as saying, " Dorris was probably the descendant of a white man named Dorris whom records show befriended the Modocs on the West Coast just before and after the Modoc War of 1873.

" The Washington Post provides a contrary report of Dorris's descent: " Dorris ' father's mother, who was white, became pregnant by her Indian boyfriend, but, the times being what they were, she could not marry him.

The Dorris Motor Car Company was founded by George Preston Dorris in 1906.

Dorris is credited with developing and patenting the float-carburetor, an innovation that was used for decades after it was invented.

For much of the Dorris production life the slogan was " Built up to a standard, not down to a price.

The group was composed of husband and wife Denis and Denyse LePage, although two younger and more attractive singers, Joy Dorris and Chris Marsh, were chosen to tour and appear as the act.

A 1995 book by Hans Eysenck argues that a “ personality trait ” called Psychoticism is central to becoming a creative genius ; and a more recent book by Bill Dorris ( 2009 ) looks at the influence of “ everything from genetics to cultural crises ”, including chance, over the course of development of those who attain greatness.

Dorris argues that those who attain ‘ greatness ’ are credited with solving a key generational problem in a field and / or society ( e. g., Einstein resolving the conflict between Newton and Maxwell in physics at the outset of the 20th century ; or Woody Guthrie providing a voice for the outcasts of the Great Depression of the 1930s ).

Dorris ’ core argument is that those who become ‘ great ’ are those start out with sufficient genetic potential and then are able, over two or more decades, to obtain matches / fits with “ The Right Kind of Problems ” to extend the development of these genetic biases into what Dorris terms, “ Key Characteristics ”.

Dorris ’ argument in relation to Catalytic Matching is that anyone who eventually becomes a ‘ great ’ will have experienced one or more sustained periods of exceptionally accelerated development of their key characteristics, accelerations which serve to massively differentiate them from their former peers both in terms of development and in terms of visibility within the field.

of the individual, but simply due to chance events in the interpersonal, institutional, societal worlds around the person, who – unlike perhaps millions of equally capable peers – becomes the beneficiary of these chance events, events which Dorris argues can change a person ’ s entire future in much the same way as, e. g., a “ lottery jackpot ” or a “ Titanic ticket ”.

In 1995, Dorris and Erdrich unsuccessfully pursued a court case against their son Jeffrey Sava, who had accused them both of child abuse.

Partly for this reason, Dorris came under severe criticism by two professional colleagues, Elizabeth Cook-Lynn and Gerald Vizenor, Native Americans who were writers, Native American rights activists, and longtime professors.
