Arthur B. Schoen Jr. ’75

Body

Artie lost his battle with cancer Dec. 24, 2005.

Artie was born in New York and came to Princeton from the Buckley School and St. Paul's. He majored in history. His urbanity, charm, and wit were apparent and captivating. Artie was president of Cap and Gown Club and spent many hours there among friends, honing his considerable skills for the world after Princeton.

Following graduation, Artie joined Bankers Trust in New York. He had a successful 30-year career at the firm, and at the end was a managing director and senior member of the financial sponsors group. He is remembered well for his mentoring of younger people, his skills as a negotiator, and his strong relationships with clients. He was a trustee of the Boys' Club of New York, for which he relentlessly raised funds to support educational opportunities for young people, and was active in the Southampton Association, an important group in a community that he loved.

Artie is survived by his wife, Pamela Brown Schoen; their twins, Artie and Caroline; his father, Arthur B. Schoen '46; and many saddened friends and classmates. Artie's was a too-short life well lived. He was a gentleman.
