Biographical History

John Raven Johnson (1900-1988) was a professor of chemistry at Cornell University from 1930 until his retirement in 1965. He also served as a consultant to E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Co. from 1937 until 1951, where he worked for the Organic Chemicals Department.

Johnson received his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of Illinois where he studied with Professor Roger Adams. At Illinois, Johnson became a close friend of Wallace Carothers who in 1928 joined the Chemical Department of the Du Pont Company, where he headed the Organic Chemistry Section that developed nylon.
