C. L. Blackman was born November 21, 1893, at Peake Island, ME. He attended high school in Portland, ME, graduating in 1912. He received a B.S. degree in agriculture from the University of Maine in 1916 and the M.S. degree in dairy husbandry from Iowa State College in 1917. He pursued additional graduate education both at the United States Department of Agriculture and at Colorado State University.
Blackman's employment prior to joining the Ohio Cooperative Extension Service included work as an assistant emergency demonstration agent in Iowa, an extension dairy husbandman in Iowa, and a field secretary for the New England Holstein Association.
Blackman joined the faculty of The Ohio State University as specialist in animal husbandry on October 9, 1925. His title was changed to specialist in dairy science in July, 1939, and it was from such a position that Blackman retired in 1963. Employment with the Ohio Cooperative Extension Service was interrupted for three short leaves of absence when Blackman served on assignments in Colombia, South America, and the Ohio State University project in India.
