Darrell Lemaire was born in Reno, Nevada in 1926. He spent two years in the U.S. Navy (1944-46). He then earned a B.S. in chemistry from the University of Nevada in 1950, followed by his master's in metallurgical engineering from Mackay School of Mines (1954). He has been married twice, to Beth Grant (1945-68) and Betty Lamb (1976-). He has two sons.
During and after graduate school, Lemaire designed and operated his own milling plant, eventually selling it to work at a Uranium processing plant in Arizona. It is here, working closely with Navajo natives, that Lemaire discovered peyote, and became intensely interested in manufacturing and testing a variety of psychoactive substances. Lemaire used psudonyms "Hosteen Nez" and "Lazar" in order to publish a pamphlet on some of his findings regarding 2C-D.
Lemaire has also done work involving the use of gumweed as a potential biofuel in conjunction with individuals at the University of Nevada.
