John Rossman Huff played football at Rice University and Georgia Tech in the 1960s, and he graduated with a degree in civil engineering from the latter. After graduating in 1968, Huff joined the Offshore Company before signing up with Zapata in 1970. At Zapata, Huff was involved in major business operations, where he especially enjoyed the marine side of the work. Huff moved to Oceaneering in 1986, at the nadir of the economic slump in the petroleum business. At Oceaneering, Huff rose steadily through the company and retired around twenty years later as its president. Interviewer: Tyler Priest.
