Here's a nice professional portrait of Roderick Stephens, Jr. around the time of his retirement from Sparkman & Stephens.

And a tribute from Cruising World magazine just after his death. Double click for bigger view.

And finally his pet project, the DUKW. For his involvement in the development of this amphibious truck, Rod would earn himself the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
