At the suggestion of the surgeon William Stewart Halsted he turned to the pathology. With the exception of a sabbatical at the Vienna internist Hans Eppinger, he spent his entire career at the Pathological Institute of the Johns Hopkins University. Arnold Rice Rich was appointed in 1944 as professor of pathology. In 1947 he took over the management of pathology at Johns Hopkins Hospital.
