Lincoln Weil Lauterstein ’38

Lincoln Lauterstein died Feb. 12, 1998, his 81st birthday, in Rockport, Mass.

Linc prepared at Woodmere Academy and Mercersburg. At Princeton he majored in English and graduated with highest honors. He was chairman of the Liberal Club and a member of the Gateway Club. After graduation from Harvard Law School and serving as a radio operator in the Army Air Forces during WWII, he joined his father's law firm in NYC, where he bought an old Brooklyn Heights mansion. Despite his representation at the law firm of such prestigious clients as the Metropolitan Opera and Macy's, his widow states that he could have been an outstanding musicologist and composer. He loved gardening, especially the cultivation of roses, and loved and understood animals.

Linc is survived by his widow, Ingeborg "Inga," his son, Adrian, and his younger brother, Henry, to all of whom the class extends its deep sympathy.
