David Nunes Carvalho was born on September 29, 1848, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to Solomon Nunes Carvalho. He became widely recognized as an authority in ink and handwriting analysis, gaining prominence for his expert testimony in numerous legal cases that required scientific examination of documents.

His book Forty Centuries of Ink remains one of his most significant contributions, offering an in-depth exploration of the history, chemistry, and cultural importance of ink throughout human civilization. Beyond his authorship, he amassed a notable collection of early printed works, catalogued in Catalogue of the D.N.

Carvalho's career demonstrated a meticulous blend of scientific precision and literary scholarship. He died on June 29, 1925, in New Rochelle, New York, leaving behind an enduring legacy in both forensic document analysis and the preservation of historical knowledge.
