Message:: [QUOTE="kaparthy, post: 1806032, member: 57463"]I found a bio on the ANS site associated with a "box" of materials he donated, notes, photographs, etc. Other searches turned up some journal articles when he was a new chemist.  His interest was in fermentation. He was a contact for papers submitted for a conference. He is also mentioned a couple of times as an undergraduate in The Tech school newspaper of MIT. One year, he organized the Dormitory Acquaintance dance.  Even the obituary from the funeral home was terse.  Like so many of us, he was a very private person, known to his friends in the hobby, but not interested in publicity about himself. In the CWT book, Bowers says that he met Fuld while Fuld was "at MIT." While Fuld was somewhat older, it was only by five or six years (1932 vs. 1938).  When they met, in 1953, it was like a 21-year old Fuld and a 15-year old Bowers.[/QUOTE]
