He grew up with his parents, his older sister, Pat, and younger brother, Richard in Los Angeles. The year 1938 informs the quick reader that Ken's older than a lot of people, but younger than some.In a turn of bad luck, the dreaded Polio virus found Ken. In 1966, Ken, who worked as a technician for Pacific Bell, and his family left Southern California for the green hills of Sonoma County where they bought a home in Sebastopol surrounded with apple trees. A few years later, Ken and Arlene built a new home on three and a half acres. They raised cows, pigs, and learned how to build outstanding fences. While their children grew, they hosted two exchange students, Eva Reimers from Sweden, and Tanja Wuttke from Germany, both of whom are still loved members of the Dalton clan. Also during those years, Ken was promoted to management at Pacific Bell. He eventually ended up responsible for all the central offices, sixty-three, in an area that covered five counties. In 1977, Ken, Arlene, Bob Wiltermood, and his wife Norma, designed, built, and operated a 2000 case winery named Pommeraie Vineyards. They produced award winning Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay. However, after Bob died, the winery was sold. Ken and Arlene moved to a hilltop in Healdsburg.With the winery gone, and time on their hands, Ken and Arlene started to perform with the Camp Rose Players. Twenty years and forty productions later, both are still acting and singing. Life was good. All Ken had to do was learn some lines and bow when the audience applauded. Then, ten years ago, Ken started to write. His first article was published in Golf Illustrated in August 1996. More golf articles followed in national and regional magazines including Golf Magazine and Fairways and Greens."},{"label":"Search SCL Digital Archives for this Author","value":["Dalton, Ken, 1938-"]},{"label":"Search Author or Book in Library Catalog","value":"Search for works by Ken Dalton in the <a href=\"https://find.sonomalibrary.org/client/en_US/default/search/results?qu=%22Dalton%2C+Ken%22&te=&rt=false%7C%7C%7CAuthor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">library catalog</a>"},{"label":"Author Website","value":"View <a href=\"https://kendalton.com/ \" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">personal or professional website</a> for Ken Dalton"},{"label":"Search Author in Open Library","value":"Search for works by Ken Dalton in <a href=\"https://openlibrary.org/search/authors?q=Dalton+Ken\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Open Library</a>"},{"label":"Author's Place(s) of Residence","value":["Healdsburg"]},{"label":"Sort Title","value":"Ken Dalton (1938-)"},{"label":"Significant Title","value":"Polio and Me"},{"label":"Digital Archives Identifier","value":"ken_dalton"},{"label":"Digital Archives Collection Name(s)","value":["Sonoma County Local Authors"]},{"label":"Date Added","value":"2017/01/13"},{"label":"Filename","value":"ken_dalton.jpg"},{"label":"Title","value":"Ken Dalton (1938-)"},{"label":"Item Type","value":["Text"]},{"label":"Item Format or Genre","value":["Biography files","Bibliographies","Portraits","Photographs"]},{"label":"Search SC Local Arts for this Author or Artist","value":"<a href=\"https://digital.sonomalibrary.org/documents?filter_363=ken_dalton&applyState=true\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ken Dalton (1938-)</a>"},{"label":"Collection(s)","value":["Sonoma County Local Authors"]},{"label":"Author Name (Controlled)","value":["Ken Dalton (1938-)"]}],"description":"Ken Dalton (1938-)","sequences":[{"@type":"sc:Sequence","canvases":[{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/b78fc415-44b0-4359-9911-72dddcf65f71/canvas/_1","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"Ken Dalton (1938-)","height":446,"width":450,"images":[{"@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/b78fc415-44b0-4359-9911-72dddcf65f71/full/full/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/b78fc415-44b0-4359-9911-72dddcf65f71","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json","tiles":[{"width":512,"scaleFactors":[1]}]},"height":446,"width":450},"on":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/b78fc415-44b0-4359-9911-72dddcf65f71/canvas/_1","metadata":[]}],"thumbnail":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/b78fc415-44b0-4359-9911-72dddcf65f71/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","height":500,"width":500}}]}],"thumbnail":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/b78fc415-44b0-4359-9911-72dddcf65f71/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","logo":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/logo"}
