Jacobs, Chairman of the Salk Institute Board of Trustees. &#8220;His long time interest in basic research has led to his increasing involvement with the Salk Institute over the past several years. We are greatly pleased to have him join our Board of Trustees.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Cohn established his business career in San Diego in 1961. From that time through 1979, he was active in the development of over 3,000 residential units both as a builder and investor. He founded Data Quick Information Systems in 1980 where he served as CEO and managed its growth to become the largest real estate information provider in the United States until its sale to Acxiom Corporation in 1995. Subsequently, he acted as founder and CEO of DTS Communications until its sale in 1997. Since that time, he has been an investor in other business ventures and continues to manage his real estate portfolio.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nMr. Cohn is past chair of the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.theoldglobe.org\/\">Old Globe Theatre<\/a> and director of the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.balboapark.org\/plaza-de-panama\/Committee\">Plaza de Panama Committee<\/a> (Balboa Park project). In 2006, he and his wife, Karen, gave<br \/>\n$5M to the Old Globe to establish the Karen and Donald Cohn Education Center, the theatre&#8217;s first dedicated space for education and outreach programs.
