Arthur K. Knauss ’44, April 14, 1994, in Lake Oswego, Oregon. He received a BS from Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois, and a DDS from Northwestern University in Chicago. He served in the U.S. Navy during World War II and in the U.S. Army during the Korean War. He established a dental practice in Portland in the late 1950s, and his patients included many members of the Reed community. He was first married to Louise Baldwin ’45, with whom he had three children, and, after their divorce, married Sally Jo Cathcart in 1968. In 1985, he was forced to retire and sell his practice as a result of a small stroke. He was a member of the American Prosthodontic Society, the Multnomah Dental Society, and the Oregon Dental and American Dental associations. He was a director of the Reed Alumni Association in 1967–68 and was active in college activities. Survivors include his wife, two sons, a daughter, a sister, and four grandchildren.
