About This Video

"Take this seriously because I do" are the words that George H. Morris lives by. The man who is considered a national treasure in the equestrian world, gives Equestrian Life a rare one-on-one look into the events and milestones in his life that molded him into the mentor he is today.

George reveals that he wasn't a natural when it came to riding, but he didn't let that stop him from pursuing his passion and igniting that fire in his students, who have won Olympic medals since 1984.

Retiring from his position as Chef d'Equipe of the U.S. Show Jumping team after the 2012 Olympics, Equestrian LIfe shares this tribute to GHM as our way of saying thank you for showing us that dreams do come true.
