Bowd was born in England.[2] He designed the Lewis Cass Building. He also designed many buildings at Michigan State University (MSU) in East Lansing beginning with Old Botany[3] in 1892 and continuing on his own and at the firm with Marshall Hall, Agriculture Hall, Giltner Hall (1913 portion), IM Recreative Sports Circle, and Spartan Stadium.
