Don Herron received a BS (with Honors) in Geological Sciences from Brown University in 1971 and a MS in Geological Sciences from the California Institute of Technology in 1973. He enjoyed a career as a seismic interpreter at Texaco (1973–1977), Gulf (1977–1984), and most recently Sohio/BP (1984–2008). Since retirement in 2008, he has worked as an independent geophysical consultant for Petroleum Geo-Services (PGS) as a geosciences advisor, and with several oil companies as a seismic interpretation instructor. At Gulf and Sohio/BP, he taught in-house courses in seismic interpretation and was co-instructor for the SEG Continuing Education course “Seismic Interpretation in the Exploration Domain” (1995–2007). He was a member of the Editorial Board of The Leading Edge (2002–2007, chair in 2006–2007), and is author of the bi-monthly “Interpreter Sam” column in The Leading Edge.
