The son of a Chicago ear, nose and throat specialist, he graduated from Amherst College in 1924, and from Harvard Medical School in 1928. He became a staff surgeon, professor of medicine, and chairman of the department of otolaryngology at Northwestern University.〔(New York Times obituary, February 17, 1999. )〕 The leading expert in his field, he published more than 400 articles in medical journals, edited the ''Archives of Otolaryngology'' for 10 years, and wrote the textbook ''Surgery of the Ear'' (1959), which remains in print. His medical career spanned 70 years: he continued to see patients until a week before his death.〔(Chicago Tribune obituary, February 17, 1999. )〕 He had two children in his first marriage to Marietta Moss, Dr. George E. Shambaugh III and Susan Shambaugh, which ended in divorce. His second wife was Genevieve Krum and they raised David Shambaugh.
