Meet Henry Clark, a distinguished accelerator physicist at Texas A&M University's Cyclotron Institute in College Station. With an impressive career spanning 27 years, Clark has been pivotal in delivering cyclotron services for research, testing and experimentation to more than 200 commercial aerospace companies, such as NASA, various Department of Defense agencies and numerous universities. His unwavering dedication has cemented the institute's reputation as a premier location for space electronics testing.
Clark’s passion extends beyond his professional endeavors to the swimming pool. Once a world-ranked swimmer, he has spent more than two decades coaching the Aggie Swim Club alongside his wife, Shannon Clark. Their commitment to the sport and to nurturing young talent was recently honored with their induction into the Texas Swimming and Diving Hall of Fame and celebrated at an awards ceremony this spring.
His favorite aspect of Texas A&M is the enduring Aggie Spirit, characterized by a commitment to helping others succeed. This ethos is evident in his professional and personal life. His philosophy of "paying it forward" through teaching, coaching and volunteering reflects the core values that make him an invaluable asset to both the Cyclotron Institute and the wider community.
If you have a passion for swimming like Clark, learn more about classes and events offered through Living Well.
