- Academic administrator Louis Adolph "Mike" Rabb was born October 25, 1913 in Columbus, Mississippi. Encouraged by his brother, Maurice, Rabb was sent by his parents to Tuskegee Institute, where he met Dr. George Washington Carver, Dr. Charles Gomillion, photographer P.H. Polk and college president Dr. Robert Russa Moton. Rabb graduated from Tuskegee High School in 1931. At Tuskegee University, he earned his B.S. degree in business administration in 1935. Tuskegee sponsored Rabb's M.H.A. degree in hospital administration from Northwestern University in 1948, after which he was appointed administrator of Tuskegee's John Andrew Hospital. Rabb served as assistant to the president for seven years and secretary of Tuskegee's Board of Trustees for twenty-eight years and often played host to board members and dignitaries. Rabb retired from Tuskegee in 1981. A widower, Rabb lived in Tuskegee, enjoying golf and traveling. Rabb passed away on April 23, 2015, at the age of 101.
