Jose Poces
Jose Poces was head of the lab’s Model Shop. He was an alumnus of Pratt Institute in New York and an industrial designer. He came to the laboratory around 1968. Prior to beginning his role at the lab, he had been part of the staff of Max O. Urbahn, a prominent New York architect who was a member of the DUSAF joint venture, which was formed to design and supervise the construction of conventional facilities at the lab. In his essay “Starting Fermilab,” first Fermilab director Robert Wilson wrote “Jose Poces, who ran our superb Model Shop, contributed importantly to our architecture by his creative suggestions in the process of making the models. Even better, he would brook no nonsense from me, he was devastatingly honest, but very useful in his candid criticism.”
