Frank R. Lillie
Frank Rattray Lillie (1870 – 1947) was an American zoologist and embryologist. Lillie was appointed an Assistant Professor at the University of Chicago in 1900, Chairman of the Department of Zoology in 1910, and later Dean of the Division of Biological Sciences in 1931. His key textbook The Development of the Chick - An Introduction to Embryology was first published in 1908, 2nd edition in 1919 and 3rd edition in 1952.
Born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, Lillie moved to the United States in 1891 to study for a summer at the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, eventually rising to become its director in 1908. His efforts developed the MBL into a full-time institution.
