Donald Pillsbury was born in Omaha, Nebraska on December 29, 1902. Pillsbury earned his B.S. (1923), his M.S. (1925), and his Ph.D. (1926) degrees from the University of Nebraska. He began his career at the University of Pennsylvania as a resident in the Department of Dermatology and Syphilogy under Dr. John H. Stokes. He distinguished himself immediately and conducted studies on the chemistry of the skin. He concentrated on carbohydrates and from there moved to infections, water metabolism, and vitamin deficiencies. By 1935 he had been appointed Associate Professor; his tenure as a Professor was granted in 1945.
