In 1978, Dr. Adolf H. (Buddy) Giesecke was appointed to the M.T. (Pepper) Jenkins Professorship in Anesthesiology. At the time, Dr. Jenkins was Chair of the Anesthesiology Department and Chief of Anesthesiology at Parkland Memorial Hospital. After Dr. Jenkins' retirement in 1981, Dr. Giesecke succeeded him in those two posts. Dr. Jenkins' pioneering role in the development of UT Southwestern and the Anesthesiology department is described in detail in the 2001 book 'Anesthesiology at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas: The First Fifty Years' by Dr. Giesecke.
