Dr. George R. McGhee, Jr. received B.S. and M.S. degrees from North Carolina University, and went on to receive a Ph.D. degree in geological sciences from the University of Rochester in 1978. He became a teacher at Rutgers University in 1978, and became a professor of geological sciences, ecology, and evolution at there in 1993.

McGhee specializes in ancient ecosystems, the evolution of life within an ecological context, mass extinction, and theoretical morphology. He has authored or co-authored over 120 papers, and has written several books. His first book, The Late Devonian Mass Extinction, was published in 1996.
