Donahoe was born and raised in the Pittsburgh suburb of Mt. Lebanon. He is a grandson of longtime Pittsburgh mayor and Pennsylvania Governor David L. Lawrence.[1] He was "director of football operations" (GM) for the Pittsburgh Steelers from 1991-1999. In what was largely seen as a power struggle between himself and head coach Bill Cowher, Donahoe left the team following the 1999 season. In 2000, Donahoe took on a job at ESPN.com for the following year. Ralph Wilson re-assumed the role of president, and the general manager position was filled by former Bills head coach Marv Levy.
