Biographical History
Robert L. Bacon (1918-2009) received a B.S. from Hamilton College in Clinton N.Y. in 1940 and a Masters and a PhD in zoology from Yale in 1944. He taught anatomy at Stanford University in California prior to his tenure at the University of Oregon Medical Schoo as professor of anatomy. He then served at the Medical School as professor of cell biology and anatomy in the School of Medicine (1955-1982) A firm believer in a well-rounded education, he mentored the Robert L. Bacon Endowment which endeavored to expose medical students to studies outside their regular curriculum. Dr. Bacon did research on embryology and cancer. Among his non-medical passions were environmentalism and wine making. He was a key player in lobbying for passage of the Oregon Beach Bill of 1967, despite threats and terrorism. He felt this to be his greatest achievement. He also had great influence on the development of the Oregon Wine Industry. He died after a long illness on January 12, 2009. Honors Winner of student-selected Dr. Allen J. Hill Award for Excellence in Teaching seven times in a twenty- year period.
