Bio/Historical Note: Duncan Alexander MacGibbon was born in 1882 in Lochaber Bay, Quebec. He was educated at McMaster University and then went to Brandon College in Manitoba to teach. MacGibbon left Brandon to enroll at the University of Chicago where he received his PhD in economics in 1915. He began to teach at McMaster University but his teaching career was halted by World War I. After the war MacGibbon joined the University of Alberta as professor and head of the Department of Political Economy. He served as Commissioner for the Alberta Government on banking and credit with respect to the industry of agriculture in 1922. MacGibbon was a member of the Royal Grain Inquiry Commission, Canada from 1923-1924. He left the University of Alberta in 1929 to become a member of the Canadian Board of Grain Commissioners, a post he held until his retirement in 1949. In 1930 MacGibbon was attached to the Canadian delegation to Imperial Conference, London; in 1932 he served the same role at the imperial Economic Conference in Ottawa in 1932. After his retirement, he returned to McMaster University to teach part-time. Among his many writings, MacGibbon published two definitive books on the grain trade: The Canadian Grain Trade (1932) and The Canadian Grain Trade, 1931-1951 (1952). MacGibbon died in Hamilton, Ontario in 1969.
