   Morrie Markoff, Jewish supercentenarian and oldest man in US, dies at 110   
      
   Morrie Markoff, who was born to Jewish parents in an East Harlem tenement   
   in 1914 and lived to become what was believed to be the oldest man in the   
   United States, died June 3 at his home in Los Angeles. He was 110.   
      
   Markoff's remarkable lifespan was matched by his remarkable lucidity:   
   After he turned 100, Markoff became an avid blogger and author and saw his   
   scrap metal sculpture exhibited at a Los Angeles gallery. His memoir,   
   "Keep Breathing: Recollections from a 103-year-old," was published in 2017
