==Biography==
Knowles was born in England in 1935, educated at Magdalen College School, Oxford and Balliol College, Oxford (BA 1959, DPhil 1961). He was a Pilot Officer in the Royal Air Force. During his undergraduate he did research in Richard Norman's physical organic chemistry lab. In lab, he studied the electronic effects on the rates of aromatic substitution reactions. In 1960, he became a research lecturer at Oxford. In 1961. He later became Fellow and Tutor at Wadham College, Oxford. In 1961, when he took a post-doctoral fellowship at California Institute of Technology, he began working with George S. Hammond, an organic photo-chemist. Together, they found that some catalyzed reactions can occur up to one-million times faster than non-catalyzed reactions. Intrigued by this discovery, Knowles became an enzymologist (see below for description of work). Knowles also was a visiting professor at Yale. in 1974, Knowles moved his research to Harvard and became a permanent professor there.
Knowles married Jane Sheldon Davis in 1960, and they had three sons.
