Jesse Warren Lilienthal ’42

Word was received recently that Jesse died July 4, 1997, in San Mateo, Calif. After spending some 10 years at the U. of Chicago, following the war, he retired to his native California as a private investment manager.

Jesse joined the class from San Mateo H.S., majored in English, and joined the Marine Corps after graduation. He spent three and one-half years in the Pacific theater, attaining the rank of first lieutenant and serving with Chuck McAllister until Chuck's death on Guam in July 1944.

His postwar work at the U. of Chicago involved collaboration with a number of individuals, writing in the general field of human development, while serving on a committee established for that purpose by President Hutchins.

Jesse is survived by his wife, Thelma, to whom the class offers its most sincere condolences.
