\"Eberhardt William Heinrich was born in Braunschweig (Brunswick), Germany, on February 10, 1918. By 1923, Heinrich had immigrated to America; he spent most of his younger years in Iowa. He attended Deep Springs College and Iowa State University, and would graduate from Iowa State University in 1940 with a B.S. in geology. He later received an M.S. (1942) and Ph.D. (1947), both from Harvard University.

During World War II, Heinrich served in the U.S. Geological Survey as a geologist. After the war concluded, he worked as an instructor at Montana School of Mines (1946-1947) before joining the University of Michigan as an assistant professor of mineralogy in 1947. By 1950, Heinrich had been promoted to associate professor; by 1956, he had attained the rank of full professor. In addition to his work at the University of Michigan, he often served as a consultant to various national industries.
