In World War II, Grant enlisted in the U.S. Navy and served Naval Intelligence in Chicago, Egypt and Washington. After the war, he worked for the State Department and entered the Foreign Service, with posts in Saudi Arabia, London, Paris and Baghdad. In retirement, while living in London and Tuscany, he wrote a book, Diplomatic Immunity, published in New York and London. He contributed a chapter to the book Diplomacy Under a Foreign Flag on his work in charge of closing the Baghdad Embassy when the Iraqi government expelled the U.S., British and other western embassies during the 1967 Arab-Israeli war. Though he did not consider himself a linguist, Grant spoke and read Arabic, French, Italian, German, Greek, Latin, Hebrew and Japanese. He had a life-long interest in Egyptian hieroglyphics, and was an ardent numismatist and a scholar of classical and Napoleonic history. In London, Grant was a member for over 50 years of the Reform Club, Pall Mall and in Washington a longstanding member of DACOR, an organization of foreign affairs professionals.
