Rabb, Irving,
Biographical notes:
Irving Rabb was born February 4, 1913 in Roxbury, MA. He attended grammar school in Brookline, MA, then went on to the Boston Latin School before attending Harvard University. Mr. Rabb's family is well-known for bringing the Stop & Shop chain of grocery stores into prominence. While at Harvard he began in the Business School but later switched his concentration to fine arts, figuring that he was going to spend his life as a business man, so he should take the time to study something he actually enjoyed. After his graduation, Mr. Rabb continued to support the Harvard Art Museums, as well as other Boston-area museums and institutions.
