Dr. Donald Taylor Atkinson was an ophthalmologist and author. At the age of 8 he went to work in a coal mine. After being injured, he went to sea, but retired from the sailing life in Boston at the age of fourteen. He worked as a stable boy, coachman, and freighter, and took night classes at Tufts College. In 1899 he graduated as a psychiatric nurse from McLean Hospital, part of the Harvard medical complex. He continued his education at Pierre University, where the dean, impressed with his abilities, gave him a letter of reference to the Hospital College of Medicine in Louisville, Kentucky, where he obtained his M.D. degree in 1902.
