Harrison R. Johnson Jr. ’50

Published in the February 2023 Issue

Harry died Jan. 2, 2018, in Florida.

Born in Chicago, Harry graduated from Lakewood (Ohio) High School. Before coming to Princeton, he served in the Navy from 1944 to 1946. He majored in art and architecture, was on the track team, and was a member of Elm.

In the 10 years after graduation, he was a freelance correspondent in Europe, served three years in the U.S. Information Agency in India and East Africa, and was on the staff of a business magazine in Cleveland.

News from Harry dried up, but from addresses in our directory we believe he continued in the magazine business in Ohio until retirement, when he moved to Florida. He remarried after his first marriage ended in divorce.

We are unaware of any immediate family surviving him.
