Art died April 20, 2014, in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., after a long career in Washington, D.C.

He came to us from Exeter after a year in the Navy. Art majored in philosophy, graduated magna cum laude, and earned a master’s degree from the Woodrow Wilson School in 1952. As an undergraduate, he participated in the Glee Club and was appointed to the Committee of 50 by President Dodds *1914. He joined Elm Club and was married in 1950.

Art had an active and eventful life, working for 26 years in many U.S. government departments, spending 23 years teaching database marketing at the University of Maryland, and serving as head of the Database Marketing Institute. He authored or co-authored 11 books, the latest, About Face, about global warming. He often mentioned his love for marketing, a talent he developed while still working for the government, and he gave many lectures on the subject over the years.

He is survived by his wife, Helena Errazuria Hughes; the children from his previous marriage, Lydia H. Bates, Robin H. Baumgartner, David Hughes, and Bill Hughes; and many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. The class offers its condolences to the family.
