ASPPA Honors Huntington with Eidson Award
Award Recognizes Contribution to the Private Retirement System
WASHINGTON, (October 17, 2010) – The American Society of Pension Professionals & Actuaries (ASPPA) honored Curtis E. Huntington, APM, COPA, FSA, MAAA, with the 2010 Harry T. Eidson Founders Award during the opening session of the ASPPA annual conference at the Gaylord Hotel, National Harbor, Md.
Huntington is a Fellow of the Society of Actuaries (FSA – 1968), a Member of the American Academy of Actuaries (MAAA – 1972) and a Fellow of the Conference of Consulting Actuaries (FCA – 2001). He is also an Associated Professional Member of ASPPA (APM – 1990). He holds a B.A. degree in Mathematics, a Master’s degree in Actuarial Science, both from the University of Michigan. Huntington also earned a Juris Doctorate degree (cum laude) from Suffolk University.
After completing service as a Commissioned Officer in the US Public Health Service, he re-joined New England Mutual Life Insurance Company (Boston), where he served as Chief Auditor, Vice President and Corporate Actuary until his early retirement in 1993. Since 1993, Curtis has been a Professor of Mathematics at the University of Michigan where he also serves as Director of the Actuarial Mathematics Program, Director of the Financial Mathematics Program and Executive Director of the Michigan Pension Education Training Program.
ASPPA established the award in 1995 to honor the memory of its founder, Harry T. Eidson. His belief in the importance of the employer sponsored retirement system in the United States and in having an organization dedicated to preserving and enhancing such a system was the inspiration for the formation of ASPPA in 1966. Each year, ASPPA honors one or two individuals for their contributions to the industry. Recipients can be members of ASPPA or from outside the association’s membership.
Past recipients include Fred Reish, Edward E. Burrows, and Samuel Savitz.
