Life and career

Born in Twin Falls, Idaho, Doughty moved to Oakland, California, at an early age, and graduated from Fremont High School in 1954. After obtaining a bachelor's degree in nuclear engineering at the University of California, Berkeley, in 1958, he went on studying theology at San Francisco Theological Seminary, from where he obtained his divinity degree in 1962. Three years later he obtained a doctorate from the University of Göttingen, Germany, where he had been a student of Hans Conzelmann. Before moving to Madison, New Jersey, in 1969, he taught New Testament theology at Princeton Theological Seminary and, subsequently, at the religion department at Southwestern at Memphis (now Rhodes College). During his long career at Drew Theological Seminary, he became the editor of Drew’s publication Gateway Magazine, and the associate editor of the Journal of Higher Criticism. He retired to Portland, Maine, in 2004.
