Before becoming an insurance broker Eugene Tittmann was a track star in his youth when he attended Central High School in St. Louis. At the 1904 St. Louis Olympics dozens of handicap non-medal track and field events were contested alongside the “true” Olympic events. Tittmann competed in three of these, all contested over 440 yards, with him winning all of them. He then studied at Princeton University before earning a law degree from Washington University. After serving in World War I Tittmann then practiced law in St. Louis, followed by working as an insurance broker for the rest of his life.
