Hanson recebeu o seu BA com as honras mais altas em clássicos de Cowell College, Universidade da Califórnia, Santa Cruz, em 1975[1] e o seu doutoramento em clássicos da Universidade de Stanford em 1980[2]. Ele ganhou a bolsa Raphael Demos na College Year em Atenas (1973-74) e foi um membro regular do American School of Classical Studies, Atenas, 1978-79.

Em 1991, Hanson foi galardoado com prémio por excelência em ensino da American Philological Association, dado anualmente para o melhor professor underdraduate de Grego e Latim nos EUA.
