Photo ID help.....

As I am going through things to post in the memorabilia thread, I came across some unpublished photos. I've always wondered who the man is Berry is shaking hands with. I believe the series of photos I have were taken as he was welcomed into Motown, as they are different poses/angles of him and BG shaking hands for the most part. Obviously I know Berry and Esther. Can anyone identify the other fellows?
A more famous photo that he appears in is the one of Mary Wilson standing addressing a company meeting. This man appears sitting behind BG, to the right. I've just never seen him identified anywhere nor do I know his capacity at Motown at the time.
Thanks for any help!

Just a Guess...Booker Bradshaw?

This is not very clear but this is the company meeting photo I'm referring to.

Not sure it’s a QC meeting why would Mary have been there?

I've seen the photo referenced as that before soulwally, sorry, I have no idea so I changed my post terminology to "company meeting".

At any rate, I think you are right snakepit. I googled Booker's name and I'm 99.9% sure it's him. Thank you for your help!

Happy Easter Roger!

And a very Happy Easter to you Marv. May you, your family and friends be safe and well.

The album cover in the window is The Miracles' " Mickey's Monkey" , so dates it about 1963.
I think that rules out Mickey Gentile, and I'd suggest Scott Reagan.
I'd go for "management" staff such as Phil Jones. Etc.

I found a photo of Phil Jones but I don' t think it's him.

Here are a few more photos from that day. When I googled Booker's name a ITMI photo came up and he is listed on it as a "Guitarist and Folk Singer". The photo was from Al Abrams' collection that was donated to U of M. Maybe these photos were taken on the day he was signed to the company. Another record visible in the window in the 3rd shot is the "Meet The Temptations".
