Art was a cross country and track coach at New Canaan High School for the past 15 years. Prior to coaching at NCHS, Art had a long and successful career as a teacher and track coach at Stamford High School.  He was named CHCAA Track Coach of the year in 2002 and was inducted into  the FCIAC Hall of Fame in 2008 in recognition of his work as a track coach at both Stamford and Rippowam High Schools. 

​

Art was loved by all the athletes he coached because they knew he unconditionally cared about each one of them. Art was also a great Fan of the Rams. He regularly attended football, basketball, soccer and lacrosse games and loved to share his coaching advice with the NCHS staff. Art will be remembered as a dedicated and passionate coach who was loved and respected by all of his athletes. He treated and supported all athletes on his teams like children of his own regardless of their talent or performances. His dedication to always doing the best he could to help his athletes on and off the track had a profound impact on the track program. He will be sorely missed by all. 

 

 Art is being inducted into the New Canaan High School Hall of Fame as one of the 2024 honorees. The Hall of Fame dinner will take place at the Country Club of New Canaan on October 18th. Details about this event can be found here.
