Timeline
Louis Sanford Goodman (August 27, 1906 – November 19, 2000) was an American pharmacologist.
Goodman was born in Portland, Oregon in 1906 and received his B.A. from Reed College in 1928 and an M.D. from the University of Oregon Medical School in 1932.
After interning at Johns Hopkins Hospital, he joined the Yale School of Medicine faculty, where he met Alfred Gilman.
Goodman married Helen Ricen in 1934, and they had two daughters, Carolyn and Debora.
He is survived by his grandchildren, Jonathan, Rebecca, Miriam and Jacob and great-grandson Leo Goodman Liggins.
Goodman was appointed an assistant professor at the University of Vermont in 1937, and became its chair of pharmacology and physiology in 1943.
He is best known for his collaborations with Alfred Gilman, Sr., with whom he authored the popular textbook The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics in 1941 and pioneered the first chemotherapy trials using nitrogen mustard.
They began teaching pharmacology courses together and began to develop a textbook, which was published as The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics in 1941.
While at Yale, Goodman and Gilman were assigned a government contract in nitrogen mustard research in 1942.
With knowledge that the compound depleted white blood cells, the pharmacologists experimented with intravenous injections on a terminally ill lymphosarcoma patient in Gustaf Lindskog's care.
Though the tumor regenerated and killed the patient, the drug's success in briefly eliminating the tumor is considered a historic accomplishment in chemotherapy treatment, and the compound is still used as a chemotherapeutic agent.
Then, in 1944, he moved to Salt Lake City to found a department of pharmacology at the University of Utah College of Medicine.
There, Goodman demonstrated that the paralysis induced by curare was temporary, which he did by injecting a colleague with the relaxant.
Goodman was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 1965.
Goodman retired in 1971 and remained in Salt Lake City for the remainder of his life, continuing to teach at the College of Medicine.
He died on November 19, 2000, at the age of 94.
