Edit ProfileCareer
In 1996 he was named as a Rice distinguished alumni. After an interlude teaching at New York University he returned to Rice, where he spent the rest of his career. His detailed Guide to Literary London (1973, 406 pages), which described 38 literary walks through the streets of London, was described as ambitious by Humphrey Higgins in the Journal of the Royal Society of Arts as to Williams, London was a foreign city.
Rice also wrote for academic journals on his hobby of ornithology and was one of the founders of the Houston Museum of Natural Science for which he was the first president from 1948 to 1950.
