Huguette Lucienne Bach MAT ’64

Huguette Lucienne Bach MAT ’64, February 13, 2012, in Woodland, California. Huguette was a native of France. She and her husband, Max Bach, lived in the U.S. and settled in Davis in 1952. Starting out as an owner of a hair salon, Huguette became interested in advancing her education and subsequently earned a BA in French, graduating Phi Beta Kappa from the University of California, Davis. She studied mathematics at Reed, leading to a career as a teacher in Sacramento schools and to tenure at California State University at Sacramento, from which she retired as professor emerita in 1992. “I thank Reed for my success,” she wrote for a class note in Reed in 2011. Huguette lived in Hawaii for several years before moving to Carmichael, California. She loved music and travel, and she made beautiful gardens, meals, and artwork. “She simply loved and enjoyed life.” A daughter and son survive her.
