Dr. Holliday earned his medical degree from Marquette University in Milwaukee. He completed his residency at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore and joined the school’s department of otolaryngology in 1975, according to a June 2 statement from the university. In 1979, he began a fellowship in neuro-otologic and skull base surgery in Zürich, Switzerland, which jump-started his international reputation as a highly respected expert in skull base surgery.
He spent four decades as a member of Johns Hopkins’ surgical faculty and founded the Skull Base Surgery Center at the university. He retired from the university in 2013.
