By Anna Gerber, Director of Communications, Colorado State University College of Agricultural Sciences Dave Holm was destined to work with potatoes. He was raised on a potato farm in southeast Idaho, where his dad and grandfather instilled in him a love of one of the world’s most important crops. The first in his family to go to college, he studied plant science during his undergraduate and graduate studies at the University of Idaho as he narrowed his focus to potato breeding and physiology. “My career started when I was born,” Holm says. “My dad was a big supporter of education. I also had a good seventh-grade science teacher who told us we needed to start thinking about what we wanted to do in life, and I knew what I wanted to do, generally, was to work with plants.”
