History
Andrew Francis Jackson was born in Concepción, Chile, in 1880, of Scottish and American parents. After completing his early education in American schools in Concepción and Santiago, he travelled to the United States in 1901 to enter the School of Dentistry at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. He graduated in 1904 and entered practice, first in Camden, New Jersey, and then in downtown Philadelphia. He was also a demonstrator in operative dentistry at the University of Pennsylvania Dental School from 1906-1908. He read the Tomes Lectures at the Royal College of Surgeons of London in 1948, and was made a Fellow in Dentistry. He retired in 1962. He died in 1968. Posthumously, Jackson was awarded the Albert H Ketcham Memorial Award for 1964.
