Dale, born Gerald Dale Templin, on a Wisconsin farm in 1938, was raised in a family of eight children. I attribute most of my rectitude on my mother's influence and my father's stern authority. My formative years created a desire to become a writer but this creativity was not developed at that time. Because of my limited resources, my writing career was considered a hobby while I struggled for financial equilibrium. I spent three years in the United States Army beginning immediately after high school graduation. My career thereafter centered on factory work.
