Durk Pearson and his wife, Sandy Shaw are the scientists behind the high-quality supplements Michelle and Geg Pryor sell at Life Priority.
Both Durk and Sandy are known as independent experts in anti-aging research and brain biochemistry since 1968. They have been pioneers in the life extension field. The publication of their runaway-bestseller Life Extension, A Practical Scientific Approach in 1982 was a benchmark in the history of nutritional science and created a whole new biomedical paradigm. Among other best sellers, Durk & Sandy are the authors of Freedom of Informed Choice: FDA Versus Nutrient Supplements, a book that discusses constitutional and scientific issues relating to the FDA’s regulation of the dissemination of scientific information.
Durk graduated from MIT in 1965 with a triple major in Physics, Biology, and Psychology, and a triple minor in electrical engineering, computer science, and chemistry. Durk has patents in the areas of oil shale recovery, laser, holography, and functional food. He worked on all the manned aerospace programs from Gemini to the Shuttle and won numerous awards, including an award from the International Society for Testing and Failure Analysis (a professional organization), for his penetrating quality control and safety analyses. He wrote much of the original safety manual for the Materials Processing Laboratory on the Shuttle.
Sandy Shaw received her B.S. degree in chemistry from U.C.L.A. in 1966 with a double major in chemistry and zoology and a minor in mathematics. She has a patent on a functional food product. Her work in the food industry has included supervision of quality control of all food production at a major canned food company. In the late 1960s, she designed and implemented the first computerized quality control system to be used at the company, doing all the computer programming herself.
