note = "Funding Information: Dr. Booker is a former Minnie Stevens Piper Fellow, and has received numerous other awards, which include the George T. Landolt Memorial Fellowship in Chemistry, the P. S. Wharton memorial Fellowship in Chemistry, the American Chemical Society Outstanding Student Award (local chapter), NSF Faculty Early Career Award, and the Presidential Early Career Award in Science and Engineering. Recently, he was recognized as an Arthur C. Cope scholar by the American Chemical Society. In addition to other national service, Dr. Booker served as co-chair for the Gordon Conference on Enzymes, Co-enzymes, and Metabolic Pathways (2007), and is currently chair of the Minority Affairs Committee for the American Society of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. Funding Information: Squire J. Booker was raised in Beaumont, Texas, where he got excited about science during frequent trips as an elementary school student to NASA in Houston with his late Uncle, Albert J. Price. He received a BA degree with a concentration in Chemistry from Austin College (Sherman, Texas) in 1987. In the summer of 1986 he participated in the first MIT Minority Summer Science Research Program, where he worked in the laboratory of the late Dr. William H. Orme-Johnson in the Department of Chemistry. He earned his Ph.D. degree from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with Professor JoAnne Stubbe (1994), and was supported by NSF{\textendash}NATO and NIH Fellowships for postdoctoral studies in the laboratories of Dr. Daniel Mansuy (Universit{\'e} Ren{\'e} Descartes, Paris, France) and Professor Perry Frey (Institute for Enzyme Research, University of Wisconsin{\textemdash}Madison), respectively. In 1999 he moved to The Pennsylvania State University as an independent investigator, where he is currently an Associate Professor of Chemistry, and an Associate Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.
