Don died Jan. 7, 2010, in Wexford, Pa.

He was born Dec. 17, 1927, in Washington, D.C., and came to Princeton from Katonah and Bronxville high schools. He was an English major and earned highest honors in the divisional program in the humanities, high honors in English, and a Phi Beta Kappa key. He belonged to Court Club, the Players Guild, and the University Orchestra.

After college Don had three successive careers: corporate writer and editor, freelance writer, and forensic photographer. Don loved to read good books, listen to good music, and walk quietly in the woods.

He leaves behind Nancy, his wife since 1958; and two sons, David and George. To all of them, the class extends its sympathy.
