Snodgrass, M.D. graduated from Harvard College in 1949 and from Harvard Medical School in 1953.

Thorn, the chief of medicine. In 1973 Dr. Snodgrass left Boston to become professor of medicine at Indiana University School of Medicine and chief of the medical service at a large veterans hospital in Indianapolis.
