Charles Drew was born 1904 and became an outstanding athlete at Amherst College, but he wasn't interested in his studies much until he enrolled in a biology class. In the mid-20's, he decided to become a doctor because he loved biology. He moved to Montreal, Canada and saved for his medical education at McGill University. Drew was an excellent student and developed an interest in the area of blood transfusions.
When he graduated with a doctorate, Drew accepted a position as pathology instructor at Howard University. He continued to study the possiblities of storing bolld over a period of time.
