Henry Richardson Labouisse, Jr. (February 11, 1904 - March 25, 1987) was an American diplomat and statesman. He was the third Director of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) from 1954 to 1958. He was the director of the United Nations Children's Fund for fifteen years(1965-1979). He was also a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. A lawyer, he was United States Ambassador to France 1952-1954, as well as U.S. United States Ambassador to Greece 1962-1965. Labouisse had been the principal State Department official dealing with the implementation of the Marshall Plan.[1]
He was born to Henry Richardson, Sr., and Frances Devereux (Huger) Richardson, an Anglican of Louisiana (hence his Francophone last name). He married Elizabeth Scriven Clark on June 29, 1935. He married Ève Curie, nine years after Clark died, in 1954.
There is a prize in his honor established at Princeton University, his alma mater, which is given to a graduating senior each year.[2]
