He married Natalie Zane Moore in 1954, and they have three grown children. Following a variety of jobs in academic administration, Babbitt became President of Kirkland College in 1965, at 36.

Retired as Senior Vice President for Development at Brown University in 1993, he continues active in the theater, as actor and Board member.view less
