When alums run through the luminous list of famous names who have passed through Harvard’s ivied halls, a few rockers sneak in among the Supreme Court justices, laurelled writers and high-ranking politicians: Bonnie L. Raitt ’72, Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello ’86 and Weezer frontman and sometime Harvard student Rivers Cuomo all did time by the Charles. But few would likely mention Jacob H. Slichter ’83-’84, whose years in the music industry have left him far from a household name?...

The precise nature of his depression can be divined from his back catalog, which still sells briskly and is full of hopelessness (Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now), tentative homoeroticism (Hand in Glove) and rage at the hypocrisy of authority figures (Margaret on the Guillotine). At 45, Morrissey--his seldom used first name is Steven--has not changed his character; he remains sensitive and defiant, with a lacerating wit. But he has changed his life. In 1998 he left his native England for Los Angeles, where he lives in a house built for Clark...
