(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, Lewis Knudson was an American botanist who dedicated most of his professional life to the study of the biology, reproduction and propagation of orchids. He obtained his Bachelor of Science and Arts degree at the University of Missouri in 1908 and came to Cornell University as an assistant in plant physiology. Here he earned his doctorate, was appointed assistant professor of plant physiology in 1911 and was made acting head of that department in 1912. In 1916, his department became incorporated into the department of botany and he became a professor of botany. In 1941 he was named the head of this department. He retired in 1952.
