Pearson graduated from West Philadelphia High School in 1919 and then enrolled at the University of Pennsylvania for two years (1919-1921). By 1921 he was employed in Camden, NJ, by Arnold H. Moses, and he remained with him through 1925, when he moved to the office of Carl A. Ziegler (1926). From 1926 to 1933 he worked with George I. Lovatt. On the Philadelphia Chapter, AIA, "Questionnaire for Prospective Members," he also noted stints of employment with Edward Boggs, William Walter Sharpley, Watson & Thompson, and Llewellyn Price. Although these terms of employment bear no dates, he does note on the same questionnaire that he worked for the U.S. Navy and had been involved in the design of the Submarine Materials Segregation Building at the Philadelphia Navy Yard, the boiler house at Fort Mifflin, and the Transformer and Compresser Building at the Philadelphia Navy Yard.Pearson joined the AIA in 1945.
