Upon graduation, he joined Citibank in Shanghai, the city, in his words, offering the “greatest opportunities in the world.” In 1942 he was captured by the Japanese and was held in the Lungwa prison camp for the duration of the war — a “frustration” of forced inactivity.

DAMON CARTER ’42
The end of an era. Damon, paragon of class secretaries and exemplar of fulfillment in career and retirement, died unexpectedly July 19, 2004, in New London, N.H.
A graduate of Phillips Academy Andover, he majored in English at Princeton, won letters in hockey, and was a member of Charter Club, the Glee Club, and Yacht Club.
Rejected medically by the armed services in World War II, Damon engaged in labor relations at Raytheon Co. In 1945 he married Ann Brittain, who died in 1992. They had four children, Janet, Betsy, Damon Jr., and Steven.
Damon truly enjoyed his career in advertising in Boston. He excelled as an account executive. In 1982, he retired as vice president and director from Humphrey Browning and MacDougal. He and Ann then moved from Newton, Mass., to Warner, N.H.
In our 50th yearbook, Damon wrote, “35 years plus in advertising business strictly training for what I do best — retirement . . .” True to that claim, with Ann’s support and company, Damon developed low-income housing in Warner, attended most of our class functions, gave invaluable direction to our mini-reunions, enjoyed sailing and skiing, and was an avid tennis player.

On doctors’ orders, he was not allowed to attend our 60th reunion and this was a major disappointment to him and to us. He thought our 50th was “terrific!” Brooks peppered class secretaries with notes about classmates he’d seen, his work on alumni schools committees, the log cabin he and Maggie built in the foothills of the Sierras (made of “giant Lincoln Logs”), and their trips with their children by camper across the United States and later by themselves, using Elderhostel.
