Arnold Kaufman was elected to the Hall of Fame for his football excellence and his distinguished career as a business leader.
A 1940 Northeastern graduate, Kaufman earned football letters in 1936, 1937 and 1938, as an offensive guard and defensive interior lineman. In his senior year, 1938, he was selected to the Small College All America Team and to the Liberty Magazine All America Team. His play in the Huskies 13-0 loss to Boston College was so impressive to the Eagles, that he made the Boston College All Opponent Team. He later served as end coach for Northeastern from 1949 to 1951 and coached at Huntington Prep. He played many years of semi-pro football for the Quincy Manets and the Pittsfield Golden Bears. A native of Malden, Mass., he played both football and hockey at Malden High School and in 1946 was a first string selection to the All Time Malden Past Football Team as chosen by the Malden News.
Kaufman has been associated with the RKO General Inc. for over 25 years and made his way to the position of Vice President for Corporate Development. He was Director of Cablecom General Inc., a Trustee of the American Guild of Variety Artists Welfare Fund, Chairman of the American Guild of Variety Artists Finance Committee, and the President of Arnold Kaufman, Inc.
A devoted alumnus, he also achieved the position of Director of the National Council of Northeastern University.
