Prof. Laurens Ruben [biology 1955–92]

A Man of Science and Style

Prof. Laurens “Larry” Ruben  [biology 1955–92] transformed Reed’s biology programs over the course of his tenure, solidifying the department’s research-driven focus and beguiling colleagues with his peerless sense of style. He was one of the most influential professors in Reed’s history, having taught for 37 years and mentored distinguished alumni such as Larry Sherman ’64 and Roger Perlmutter ’73.
