...Harris, who is a managing director at Morgan Stanley in New York, this is only the most recent of a long string of accolades. In the past year, she has been named to Fortune magazine’s list of “The 50 Most Powerful Black Executives in Corporate America,” as well as to Black Enterprise magazine’s “Top 50 African Americans on Wall Street” and to Essence magazine’s list of “The 50 Women Who are Shaping the World...
