Happy 100th birthday to Norman Graves

Norman Graves was GA President in 1978. 

He reaches the milestone age of 100 years old today.

Happy Birthday Norman!

Read all about him here.

There are quite a lot of very long-lived former GA Presidents (I hope that's a good omen) but I think Norman may be the first to have reached the century...

Norman's work on curriculum continues to be referenced in academic work, and many of a certain age (such as me) will remember using his white school textbook written with John Talbot White.

A picture of my personal copy can be seen below:
