Lost K (16)

Daniel KaplanKaplanDaniel Kaplan

It has been over 15 years since I've heard from Dan so I have reluctantly moved him to the LOST listings.  If anyone has an update on him I would appreciated hearing from you and will gladly move him back to the active list, if appropriate - Bill <><


From 50th Reunion Book, 2002 - In 1953, after graduation from Lehigh and a short stint as an engineer with RCA's Harrison, New Jersey Division, I accepted a commission as a USAF 2nd Lieutenant with the Technical Intelligence Command at Wright Patterson AFB.  For the following 3 1/2 years I worked at analyzing the capabilities of the USSR aircraft industry.

NJIT degree: MS in Management Engineering, 1956 and Columbia University degree: NIS in Business Administration, 1959.

After the tour in the USAF, my professional career can best be characterized as broad and varied, but mainly focused on achieving a top management position with a small to medium-sized manufacturing firm.  Working in industries as diverse as structural steel fabrication and intimate apparel manufacture, I progressed through a number of Operations functions from industrial engineer to Vice President of Operations.  In 1979, I was appointed President of Metem Corporation, an exotic machining company; and in 1987, became President of Kemp Industries, a manufacturer of hydraulic pumps, motors and valves for the aircraft and defense industries.  From 1990 until the present, I have been a management consultant to senior executives of manufacturing and logistics companies.

Thirty-six years ago, I was fortunate to meet my lovely wife, Claire.  We have 2 children: our daughter, Melissa, who's married to Mike Guarino, lives in Summit, NJ and has 2 sons, Eric and Cameron, and our son, David, who's married to Cheryl Perera, lives in Richmond, VA and has 3 sons, Alex, Zach and RyanClaire and I, having lived previously in New Jersey, California and Connecticut, now reside in the same house in Mendham, NJ for 26 years.

Great, Lawrence, it has been another 17 years that I haven't heard from you - maybe if I move you to "Lost" I'll hear from you again - May, 2023.

February 2006 - I have had Lehigh '52 website for several years, finally got tired* of being classified as dead.  You asked for an "update" (never heard of a downdate).  Am engaged two days a week with 4-5 other retirees keeping a 72 year old girl pristine and fully functional.

My wife, Carol & I plan to attend the 50th reunion.

We're still active.  I do a little consulting work in plastics.  Am currently publicity chairman for two conferences coming up.  Polyolefins 2001 to be held in Houston the last week in February, 2001.  We expect 700 to 1000 attendees.   Also on the planning committee for the Society of Plastics Engineers (ANTEC) to be held in Dallas the first week of May 2001.  Expect 4000 to 5000 attendees.

I still get hooked for these jobs, since I was the International President 1984-85.

I'm also working one day a week with teenager's (13 to 17 years old) locked up in prison.  These are essentially throw away kids who really never had decent parents.

Then I devote some time to the students studying plastics at Texas A&M University. Just took my 8 yr old grandson to the Kansas State game and while
there at lunch introduced him to George Bush and Barbara.  He was very pleased to shake the hand of a president.  He thought the electricity of 81,000 screaming fans at the game was just great. 

Am also glad to see Lehigh is having such a great football year.  Wish I could get to one of the games.  Currently planning to be in NYC to see some shows about the middle of December.

Took four of our eight grandkids to San Francisco to see the Redwoods during spring break.  They had a great time.
