Harris, who studied at Columbia University, was considerably younger than his brother. He was traveling and continuing his studies while his older brother became established in his theater work.The younger Harris was returning from Paris when he received word that his brother was one of those who died on the RMS Titanic.[2] Harris assisted his sister-in-law in the management of his brother's business affairs, becoming a producer himself through this work.[2] References1. ^(3 September 1946).
