Harvey came to us from Deerfield and was a member of Ivy Club. His time at Princeton was interrupted by service in the Army as a lieutenant in the Artillery Corps. Upon his return to academia, he married Ann and graduated with honors from the Woodrow Wilson School and then Harvard Law School. Both his father and his son David graduated from Princeton.
Following a judicial clerkship, he entered into private practice in his native Baltimore and became a partner in Venable, Baetjer & Howard, a leading Baltimore firm, concentrating on corporate transactions including mergers and acquisitions. Harvey was also an active and successful private investor in widely ranging ventures — from publishing legal-education material for recent law graduates to successful oil and gas exploration ventures in Turkey.
He ultimately left the law firm to concentrate on investment activities, where he partnered with his son, David, and was so engaged at the time of his passing. He was known for his astute and unorthodox thinking as much as for his charisma and charm, and will be missed by all those privileged to have enjoyed his friendship.
Harvey is survived by his spouse of 55 years, Ann; son David ’91 and daughter-in-law Allison; and their children Jackson and Ella. Our condolences go out to them on the sad loss of this remarkable lawyer, entrepreneur, husband, father, grandfather, and classmate.
