Bio/Historical Note: Dr. Laurence Merriam Winters was born 15 June 1891 in Pepin Township, Wabasha County, Minnesota. Winters was professor of Animal Husbandry at the University of Saskatchewan Bio/Historical Note: Laurence Merriam Winters was born 15 June 1891 at Lake City, Minnesota. He earned his BS degree (in animal husbandry) in 1919 and his PhD degree (in zoology) in 1932, both at the University of Minnesota. His MS degree was earned at Iowa State College in 1920. His search for knowledge led him to study at the University of Wisconsin in 1925 and at the Boyce Thompson Institute (Harvard University) in 1927. Dr. Winters was a professor of animal husbandry at the University of Saskatchewan from 1920 to 1928. He published in 1925 his first edition of "Animal Breeding". This work was a useful addition to the shelves of students and livestock men, and as a text book to the former and as a reference volume and means of better understanding of the many breeding problems met with by the practical and experienced stockman. The second edition was published in 1930. Late in 1928 he returned to Minnesota as associate professor in charge of animal breeding in the Division of Animal Husbandry. Dr. Winters oversaw the first successful artificial insemination (AI) attempt in American farm history. The first animal born with AI technology was a Guernsey calf named Minnehaha Tuba. The breeding journals called him 'the Al Capone of the animal industry.' Promotion to rank of professor came in 1934. Dr. Winters retired in 1956 to accept a post as an agricultural adviser to the Government of Iraq where he acted for the International Cooperation Administration of the United States Department of State. Dr. Winters was in Baghdad at the time of his death on 16 March 1958. He was elected in 1999 to the Minnesota Livestock Breeders' Association Hall of Fame.
