As we continue to work our way through our archive of photos, we run across some that are a bit out of the ordinary.  They may be humorous or unique but they stand out from the other photos. We will post new photos here monthly with the previous photos in the slideshow.

Our June Photo of the Month is of Tektronix co-founder Glenn McDowell. Glenn, along with Jack Murdock, Miles Tippery, and Howard Vollum founded Tekrad on January 2, 1946. This is the only photo we have of Glenn.

Glenn was General Manager and Secretary-Treasurer of Hawthorne Electronics as noted in this May 4, 1947 Sunday Oregonian article. Glenn eventually exchanged his Tektronix stock for the Hawthorne Electronics stock, taking full ownership and separating the company from Tektronix and the other founders.
