[1] After attending public schools in Michigan City, he went on to Harvard where he was Phi Beta Kappa and graduated magna cum laude in 1941.

During his last year as an undergraduate Manny began his architectural studies at the Graduate School of Design under Walter Gropius and Marcel Breuer.

After the war Manny returned to architectural studies, first with a brief stint as an apprentice of Frank Lloyd Wright at Taliesin and then with two years under Mies van der Rohe[6] at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago.

Following his retirement the foundation's trustees created a special grant in his honor to be awarded annually to a doctoral candidate in architectural history.
