Wall Street banks are not known as particularly religious workplaces. But Carla A. Harris, a managing director at Morgan Stanley and a part-time gospel singer, has found a way to blend profits with piety.
Ms. Harris, one of the most senior African-American female executives on Wall Street, began her career in mergers and acquisitions, then worked her way up the equity capital markets ranks. She now runs the emerging manager platform at Morgan Stanley, where she advises asset managers owned by women and members of minorities.
But after hours, she is a celebrated gospel artist who sings in two choirs, has released three solo albums and has performed packed shows at Carnegie Hall.
