Where Did Rudolph Come From? Where Did Rudolph Come From?

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer originated in 1939 as a character created for a Christmas coloring book by Robert L. May, an advertising copywriter for the Chicago-based Montgomery Ward department store. The story was conceived as a promotional gimmick for the store, which wanted to save money on giving away coloring books by creating its own.


  • Creator: Robert L. May, a copywriter for Montgomery Ward.
  • Origin: The story was written for a children's coloring book that the store distributed for free to customers.
  • Inspiration: May drew on his own experiences with being bullied for his shyness and small stature to create the story of an outcast reindeer who becomes a hero.
  • Early success: Montgomery Ward printed millions of copies of the booklet in the first year, and it quickly became a popular marketing tool.
  • Song adaptation: May's brother-in-law, Johnny Marks, later adapted the story into the well-known song "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," which was first recorded in 1949 by Gene Autry. AI Overview

Mott Middle College Class of 2011

1. My experience at Mott Middle College was rewarding. As a student, I had the opportunity to make lifelong connections with other students and staff alike. The support from the teachers even beyond the classroom setting is incredible. I would argue that there’s no place like MMC!

2. Since graduating, I married the love of my life, Gabrielle. We’ve been married for 11 years and have an almost 6 year old son, Calvyn. Currently I am the HR Supervisor for a local nonprofit and I’m the Senior Pastor of Grace Cathedral Community Church. I’ve also written and self-published 2 books, #AsYouWere (a 21-day devotional) and #SundayNap (a 31-day devotional) both of which are available on Amazon. I’m currently finishing my Bachelor of Science in Business Administration & Data Analysis with a focus on Human Resource Management.

3. The advice I would give to current students is to develop an understanding and appreciation for the investment you’re making in yourself as a student at MMC. Not everyone is able to take advantage of a quality high school education while also matriculating through a tuition-free collegiate experience. The return on the investment of the time spent learning is invaluable. Show up, do the work, graduate and be proud that you’ve accomplished something that not all are able to do. You are #MaverickStrong.
