Arthur Gorman Lambert ’22

Body

ART LAMBERT died June 6, 1991, at his home in Chevy Chase, Md. He was very active and vigorous until March, when he was hospitalized. After four days in the hospital, he demanded to be sent home and then went Florida for a week. Unfortunately his health failed significantly, but he suffered no pain and little discomfort. Art was devoted to Princeton and the Class of 1922. He attended many reunions and maintained contact with many classmates.

His widow, Mary Lemon, survives, as do his sons William'49 and Arthur Jr. '57. Arthur Sr. graduated from Harvard Law School and joined his father's firm in 1926. He worked in the U.S. Attorney's Office from 1929 to 1933 and then established a private practice in Washington, D.C., which became Lambert and Furlow.

Art founded Suburban Hospital in Bethesda and served as president and chairman for many years. He established an annual award for excellence in nursing there, and its laboratory is named in his honor. He served as president of the Princeton Club of Washington for many years, and in 1965 and 1988 he received its award for distinguished community service.
