Abstract:

Understanding this Whiteville lifelong resident entailed revealing details such as his early attempt to follow in his father’s footsteps, WWII service, graduation from Duke, civic contributions, home life with his family. The best way to understand Lawrence Bowers, though, seemed to lie in understanding his passion for the career he chose over bridge building: banking.
