Virginian-Pilot, The (Norfolk, VA) - Thursday, December 26, 2002 
BALTIMORE - McDonald Edward Wrenn Jr., a retired health physicist, died in his 
sleep on Dec. 19, 2002. He was the grandson of Charles O. Wrenn and Jessie R. 
Wrenn, and nephew of Josephine Wrenn of Norfolk, Va.



In 1958 Mr. Wrenn received a B.A. with honors in physics from Princeton 
University. Upon graduation, Mr. Wrenn entered the United States Navy and 
served as a radiation protection officer. By 1966, he had received a Ph.D. from 
New York University in environmental health sciences, as well as a master's 
degree in sanitary science.



Mr. Wrenn conducted cutting-edge research on radiation protection. He was a 
professor of Environmental Medicine at New York University, and held two

director of the environmental radiation and toxicology laboratory, and was 
president of the company Radiation Surveillance Associates.
