Morris Martick, Baltimore’s Iconic Restaurateur Extraordinaire Passes

Baltimore’s Iconic Restaurateur Extraordinaire Passes

Kevin E. Dayhoff

http://www.thetentacle.com/ShowArticle.cfm?mydocid=4827

Morris Martick, the son of Polish Jewish immigrants, who ran the delightfully quirky Martick’s Restaurant Francais at 214 West Mulberry Street in Baltimore for almost 40 years, passed away December 16.

The mere mention of Mr. Martick, 88, a Baltimore icon and institution, brought back memories of many wonderful visits over the decades to his zany restaurant until it closed in August 2008.

One of the better descriptions of Mr. Martick, among many, came from Baltimore Sun writer, Rob Hiaasen, in a wonderful article dated May 17, 2006. “Morris Martick … lifelong bachelor, former Sunday pilot, former oyster boat owner, 1966 candidate for the Maryland House of Delegates, art patron, self-taught cook, self-taught self – is eating cornflakes in his own restaurant.”

Mr. Martick’s French restaurant was located in the house where he was born. At the time his parents ran a little neighborhood grocery store out of the building, err, house that is…

According to a tribute written by Jacques Kelly, for The Baltimore Sun on December 16, “His parents, who came to Baltimore from Pennsylvania in 1917, operated a grocery store. When liquor sales became illegal during Prohibition, they ran a speakeasy. Mr. Martick said in a 1973 Sun profile that ‘they hid the liquor in the bathroom.’ After repeal in 1933, they obtained a liquor license and opened the bar.”... http://www.thetentacle.com/ShowArticle.cfm?mydocid=4827

++++++++++++++

Baltimore characters are fun… Mr. Martick will be missed… Just saying… Happy New Year everyone. Stay well. http://www.thetentacle.com/ShowArticle.cfm?mydocid=4827

Edited from the piece for word limit… right after: Although I was a “Morning Sun” reader, I often would seek-out a copy of the Evening Sun for the specific purpose of reading Mr. Goodspeed’s column.

And I was quite excited when he came to Westminster for a short stint at the Carroll County Times. “Mr. Goodspeed left The Evening Sun in 1967 and went on to edit the Carroll County Times for a year and the Towson Times for another year,” according to Mr. Kelly.

Mr. Goodspeed, according to Mr. Kelly, “often picked up news tidbits at Martick's bar on Mulberry Street, and quoted Rose, whom he described as ‘the girl bartender.’ ”

And before: So, while roaming the streets of Baltimore very late one night with a gaggle of artist-friends, we were referred to a “quirky French restaurant,” by the name of Martick’s… Recalling Mr. Goodspeed’s column, I jumped at the chance to go to Martick’s for a bite to eat – thinking it was still a bar…

++++++++

Now, who remembers Mr. Goodspeed?

1895: First commercial movie screened

On this day in 1895, the world's first commercial movie screening takes place at the Grand Cafe in Paris. The film was made by Louis and Auguste Lumiere, two French brothers who developed a camera-projector called the Cinematographe. The Lumiere brothers unveiled their invention to the public in March 1895 with a brief film showing workers leaving the Lumiere factory. On December 28, the entrepreneurial siblings screened a series of short scenes from everyday French life and charged admission for the first time... read more

Soaring steel sculpture by preeminent American artist Mark di Suvero at Brooklyn Bridge Park

http://www.artdaily.org/index.asp?int_sec=2&int_new=52458

BROOKLYN, N.Y.- Storm King Art Center, Brooklyn Bridge Park, and The Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy have announced the installation at the Park of a soaring steel sculpture by preeminent American artist Mark di Suvero. Organized and implemented by Storm King, working closely with the Park and the Conservancy, the presentation of the work, titled Yoga (1991), represents the first initiative in an anticipated ongoing arts program there.

The roughly thirty-foot-tall composition is sited on the Bridge View Lawn at the Park’s Pier 1, overlooking the East River. It comprises an I-beam-bent into a U-shape that rocks and pivots on a stainless-steel pole, itself topped by an O-shaped element. The sculpture creates changing shadows and perspectives as the I-beam variously points to the harbor, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Governors Island, and beyond, while the O may remind viewers of a ship’s po ...

Breaking Up Christmas!
Half a century ago, people in the mountains of the North Carolina and Southwest Virginia celebrated Christmas quite differently than the way most of us do now, holding two weeks of informal house parties that were filled with old time fiddle music, song and dance - a tradition they called "Breaking Up Christmas." These Christmas parties ran through and ended with Old Christmas, January 6th. Walt Michael & Company will "break up Christmas" with you this evening as they share their wide-ranging repertoire of tunes and songs that reflect the rich musical heritage of the Appalachians. The traditional folk musics of Scotland, Ireland, England and Africa made their way into the remote mountain hollers, later emerging as an integrated American musical genre that continues to evolve. Traditional string band music is passed down from generation to generation., from singer to singer, from musician to musician. In this great oral tradition, songs and tunes are evaluated and winnowed by time. Memorable melodies and lyrics that withstand this test of time take their place among the venerable repertoire. Welcome to an evening of old time music. Let the season begin!

Considered to be a virtuoso of tremendous influence in the revival of the hammered dulcimer, Walt's wide repertoire ranges from old-time Southern Appalachian, to Celtic, to folk, to breath-taking original compositions. His various musical incarnations, including Bottle Hill, Michael, McCreesh & Campbell and Walt Michael & Co. have spanned over 35 years and taken him from the coal camps of Appalachia to the Closing Ceremonies of the 13th Olympic Winter Games in 1980, when 900 million world viewers heard his signature composition, Snowblind. As a vocalist and multi-instrumentalist he has recorded sixteen albums and instructional videos, appeared at the White House, the Lincoln Center, and the Kennedy Center and toured extensively throughout the US, Canada, Europe and the UK. His music has been heard on ABC-TV, NBC's Tonight Show, Broadway, BBC, TNN, CBC, OLN and PBS. Walt is the Artist in Residence at McDaniel College, as well as Founder and Executive Director of Common Ground on the Hill.
