Knox Emeritus Chairman Shaped Aiken Prep and Arts Scene
Robert Harrington recalls Knox as a gentleman who chaired Aiken Prep’s board when first meeting him in 1947. Knox led the Green Boundary Club, earned USC Aiken honors in 1985, and received an honorary Doctor of Public Service. He chaired the Buffalo Fine Arts Academy and supported the Albright-Knox, funding a 1962 wing that led to the museum’s name change. Ronald Reagan awarded him the National Medal of Arts in 1988. He is survived by his wife and children, seven grandchildren.
