Born in New York, New York, Bowman took his bachelor's degree at Cornell University in 1919. While at Cornell, he joined the Phi Kappa Psi Fraternity in 1915, and through that affiliation, was a member of the Irving Literary Society. Bowman was ranked as high as No. 13 in the United States. In 1929, he won the singles and doubles titles at the Cincinnati Masters. He was 32 years old when he won the singles title, making him to this day the fourth oldest player to win the title in Cincinnati, behind Bill Tilden (who was 33 when he won in 1926), Andre Agassi (34 when he won his third Cincinnati title in 2004) and Ken Rosewall (35 when he won in 1970). Also in 1929, Bowman won many smaller titles, including the Championship of Bermuda, the Eastern Clay Court Championship, the Hudson Valley Championship, and the Old Dominion championship in Richmond, Virginia. He also won the Atlantic Coast Championships in 1927. Bowman died in New York City in 1980.
