Hawai`i Campus: Open for Business

Legacy: Wright Bowman

In 1914, Kamehameha was considered by many to be almost an orphanage, a "poor boys" school. Can you imagine what it would be like to become a boarder at age 7? Still spry at 93 years of age, Wright Bowman's remarkable story spans a timeline that ranges from the horse and buggy to the Space Shuttle. Master woodworker Bowman and student Ka`ili Chun, graduates separated by over 50 years (KS '28 and '80), are working together in the time-honored tradition of teacher and apprentice.
