Jeffrey T. Beaver ’60

Jeff prepared for Princeton at Albany Academy, N.Y., where he served as class president, captain of the track team, and played basketball and football. With us, he majored in English, wrote for the Princeton Tiger, worked on the Campus Fund Drive, and joined Cap and Gown.

On graduation Jeff moved directly to Wall Street. He began his career with Schroeder’s and pursued his further education with an MBA in 1965 from New York University and a CFA from the Institute of Certified Financial Analysis. He spent the greater part of his career with what became J. Henry Schroeder Inc., working mostly in mergers and acquisitions. In later years, he moved to CoView Capital in the same work and then to directorships in several pharmaceutical companies.

Proximity (living in Brooklyn, N.Y.), two Princeton daughters (Julia ’01 and Annabelle ’09), keen interest in sports, and the comforts of Cap and old friends worked over time to produce a record of more than 100 postgrad visits to the Best Old Place of All.

Jeff died just after our 65th, on June 5, 2025. He is survived by his wife of more that 45 years, Vicki; Julia and Annabelle; and grandchildren Clark, Coretta, Bianca, and Jeffrey, to all of whom we send our condolences.
