Extractions: 1969 Nobel Laureate in Medicine Hershey, Alfred D. Biography: Alfred Day Hershey was born December 4, 1908, in Owosso, Michigan, a small town near the state capital, to Robert D. and Alma (Wilber) Hershey. He graduated from Owosso High School. He attended Michigan State College, later renamed Michigan State University, where he received a B.S. in Chemistry in 1930 and a Ph.D. in Bacteriology in 1934. Hershey then accepted a teaching and research position in the Department of Bacteriology at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, specializing in bacteriology and immunology. His name appears on over twenty-eight published papers during his tenure at Washington University. He was named instructor in 1936, assistant professor in 1938, and associate professor in 1942. He worked with J.J. Bronfenbrenner. In 1943, Hershey was contacted by the German physicist, Max Delbruck, who was working at Vanderbilt University. Delbruck had read Hershey's papers on phage research, and their interests coincided. Bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria. Delbruck invited Hershey to join in his experiments with the Italian biologist, Salvador Luria. These three men would become part of the American Phage Group, sometimes called the Phage Church. The group met during the summer at Cold Spring Harbor to conduct research and discuss their progress. In 1945, Hershey married Harriet Davidson. They have one son, Peter.

Extractions: M Al Hershey was born on December 4, 1908, in Owosso, Michigan. He obtained a B.S. in 1930 and a Ph.D. in 1934 from Michigan State College. From 1934 until 1950 he was employed in teaching and research in the Department of Bacteriology at Washington University School of Medicine. He married Harriet Davidson in 1945; they had one son, Peter. In 1950 Al became a staff member at the Department of Genetics, Carnegie Institution of Washington, Cold Spring Harbor, New York; in 1962 he was appointed director of the Genetics Research Unit of that institution. Al was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 1958 and was awarded its Kimber Genetics Award in 1965. Al's Ph.D. thesis, prepared in the departments of chemistry and bacteriology at Michigan State College, described separations of bacterial constituents identified by the quaint definitions of the times. Except for its evident care and industry the work was unremarkable, merely part of an ongoing study "to arrive ultimately at some correlation between the chemical constitution of [Brucella species], and the various phenomena of specificity by them" (1934). While at St. Louis Al (1951) showed that phage particles were "killed" by the decay of the unstable isotope

Extractions: Al Hershey was working on a little-studied organism called bacteriophage with phage researcher J.J. Bronfenbrenner at Washington University in St. Louis when he received a letter from the brash and brilliant German scientist at Vanderbilt University, Max Delbruck . Delbruck said he had been reading Hershey's papers and was quite interested. He and a colleague, Salvador Luria , had been studying phage themselves, and had gotten some interesting results. Would Hershey like to come to Nashville to see his lab and do some experiments? This was in 1943. Hershey went, and thus formed the third point in the nucleus of the nascent American phage group Hershey tells the story that in the late 1940s he and Luria both received job offers from the Carnegie's Department of Genetics at Cold Spring Harbor and Indiana University. Hershey was a quiet sort who mostly liked to be in lab doing experiments. Luria on the other hand, loved the excitement and stimulation of university life. Hershey came to CSH, while Luria went to Indiana. Hershey came to CSH in 1950. Within two years he had performed and published the experiment that would secure him a Nobel Prize. This was the famous "blender experiment." Hershey and his assistant Martha Chase showed that only DNA, and not protein, was injected into a bacterial cell by an infecting phage particle. The DNA was sufficient to transfer to the bacteria all the genetic information needed to produce more phage.
1997 Annual Report - Alfred Day Hershey Soon they recruited the American chemistturned-biologist alfred hershey to their James D. Watson November 10, 1997. An abridged version of this essay http://www.cshl.edu/AnnualReport/hershey.html
Extractions: Most of the basic facts about the gene and how it functions were learned through studies of bacteriophages, the viruses of bacteria. Phages came into biological prominence through experiments done in wartime United States by the German physicist, Max Delbrück, and the Italian biologist, Salvador Luria. They believed that in studying how a single phage particle multiplies within a host bacterium to form many identical progeny phages, they were in effect studying naked genes in action. Soon they recruited the American chemist-turned-biologist Alfred Hershey to their way of thinking, and in 1943 the "Phage Group" was born. Of this famous trio, who were to receive in 1969 the Nobel Prize, Hershey was initially the least celebrated. Al had no trace of Delbrück's almost evangelical charisma or of Luria's candid assertiveness and never welcomed the need to travel and expose his ideas to a wide audience. He framed his experiments to convince himself, not others, that he was on the right track. Then he could enjoy what he called Hershey Heaven, doing experiments that he understood would give the same answer upon repetition. Although both he and Luria had independently demonstrated that phages upon multiplying give rise to stable variants (mutants), it was Hershey, then in St. Louis, who in 1948 showed that their genetic determinants (genes) were linearly linked to each other like the genes along chromosomes of higher organisms.
