1921
Readers of this magazine's book review section throughout the years will join 1921 in mourning the death of one of our most talented and beloved classmates, DANASTORRS LAMB. They will be joined by all early graduates of the Dartmouth Alumni College, where Dana became for more than a decade their most popular and distinguished alumnus.
Although joining Psi Upsilon in the fall of 1917, Dana left Dartmouth after freshman year to enter World War I. Upon his return two years later he entered Princeton's class of 1923, eventually becoming class president. Upon graduation he became assistant freight manager of the Cunard Steamship Line, after which he entered the investment banking field, to which he devoted the remainder of his life.
Even though he became tremendously successful on Wall Street, he was not a workaholic. Dana proved to be a 20th-century renaissance man. As a nationally acclaimed poet, Dana published a total of nine books on fishing between 1968 and 1983.
After breaking his hip December 19, 1985 and developing pneumonia, it was on January 6, just one day after his 86th birthday, that Dana died, leaving a host of friends and family including granddaughter1 Sandra Bryan 'B3 saddened by his passing. He had been a trustee of Hofstra University, director of the Atlantic Salmon Association, and one of the founding directors of the Quebec Labrador Foundation.
My first contact with Dana after college was in 1927, helping him write and edit a motion picture for New York's "Squadron A," where he was a longtime director. We remained close friends for almost seven decades.
Let me close this obituary in the words of another great Dartmouth poet and classmate, Franklin McDuffie: "There is no music for our singing; No words to bear the burden of our praise."
