Early life and education

Norris graduated from Archbishop Moeller High School in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1985. He attended Cornell College in Mount Vernon, Iowa, receiving a B.A. in Philosophy and Sociology in 1989.

He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Nutrition and Dietetics from Life University (Marietta, Georgia) in 2000 and performed his dietetic internship at Georgia State University in 2000–2001.[1]

Career

Norris, a vegan, is a registered dietitian. He was an American Council on Exercise-certified personal trainer from 1994 to 1996.[1][2]

Norris is the author of Vitamin B12: Are You Getting It?, Tips for New Vegans, and Daily Needs [for vegans].

Norris pioneered and ran Vegan Outreach's Adopt A College program which ran from 2003 to 2020. This consisted of vegan advocates handing Vegan Outreach's booklets on the reason to be vegetarian or vegan to over 21 million students at 4,677 schools.[3] When Vegan Outreach's Adopt A College program ended in March 2020 due to the pandemic, Norris expanded Vegan Outreach's online 10 Weeks to Vegan program. Over 1.35 million people have now signed up for the program.[4] The program has different versions for 55 countries.[4]

In 2005, Norris was elected to the Animal Rights Hall of Fame.[6]

Norris married vegan chef Alex Bury on September 11, 2008, in front of a KFC restaurant in Toronto, Canada.[7] After the wedding, the guests were served vegan sandwiches that KFC had recently introduced to the public.[8] Norris lives in St. Petersburg, Florida.
