Judge Bios
NEAA REGIONAL - THURS - MARJORIE MARTORELLA
In the sport since 1968, Marjorie Martorella bred her first Pointer litter in 1974 and went on to breed more than 150 champions under the Marjetta prefix, among them Ch. Marjetta National Acclaim, Best in Show at Westminster in 1986. A former professional handler, she has judged since 1981 and judged the Hound Group at Westminster in 2020.
NEAA REGIONAL - FRI - KEN MURRAY
Ken Murray began showing Irish Setters at 13, spent ten years as assistant to Dick Cooper, and from 1979 ran his own handling business with his wife, Virginia, campaigning top dogs from every group until he retired from handling in 2004. Among them was the Gordon Setter Ch. Bit O Gold Titan Treasure, winner of the Sporting Group at Westminster three years running, 1997 through 1999. He has judged for more than two decades and will judge the Hound Group at Westminster in 2027.
NEAA NATIONAL - DOUG JOHNSON
Breeder of more than 250 champions under the Clussexx prefix, Doug Johnson is the only breeder to have produced Westminster Best in Show winners in two different breeds: the Clumber Spaniel Ch. Clussexx Country Sunrise in 1996, and the Sussex Spaniel Ch. Clussexx Three D Grinchy Glee, “Stump,” who won in 2009 at ten years old, the oldest dog ever to take Best in Show at Westminster. He has judged since 2000 and is approved for five groups. Members will recognize his name from the May–June issue, which reprinted his Showsight essay on our obligation to breed.
