Paul Atherton Kennon, Jr. (January 27, 1934 – January 8, 1990), was an American architect, a fellow of the American Institute of Architects (AIA) and Dean of the School of Architecture at Rice University, Texas, USA.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/fke79 ) From "Remembering Paul Kennon, FAIA" ''Texas Architect'', March–April 1990.〕 A native of Shreveport in northwestern Louisiana, Kennon studied for his undergraduate degree at Texas A & M University followed by his Masters at Cranbrook Academy of Art, Michigan. He subsequently spent seven years working as a designer for architect Eero Saarinen〔 (he got to the Cranbrook Academy thanks to a Eliel Saarinen Memorial Fellowship).〔 Kennon was recruited to Rice University as associate director of the School of Architecture and a teaching faculty member. He became dean of the architecture school in September 1989, just a few months before his sudden death of a heart attack.〔 In 1967, he returned to work with the architectural practice, Caudill, Rowlett, Scott, headed by his mentor William W. Caudill, for whom he had worked during his college vacations. He became a design principal and then president of the company. The projects for which he was responsible won a number of awards.〔 Kennon was the son of Paul Atherton Kennon, Sr. (1910-1986), a native of Tangipahoa Parish in South Louisiana,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Paul Atherton Kennon )〕 and the former Gladys Bookout (1910-2001), originally from Shreveport. The couple divorced; c. 1945, Gladys married Taylor W. O'Hearn of Shreveport, subsequently a state representative from Caddo Parish, one of the first two Republicans to serve in the body since Reconstruction. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Paul A.
