Wallace graduated from Eureka's junior and senior high schools, then completed his bachelor's degree at Humboldt State in 1942 and also was a piano major. After 3 1/2 years in the U. S. Army, he picked up two graduate degrees in librarianship, and spent his professional career as a college and university librarian and teacher, retiring emeritus from Chabot College, Hayward, California in 1981.
Wallace joined the Ministry, went to Holy Cross in New York, served in Santa Barbara, CA and to a Tennessee Prep. School as a Librarian. Wallace left “because I didn't like it.”
Over the years, Wallace wrote many articles for "The Humboldt Historian" that included his family history. His writing style held your interest and he spent many of his later years occupied as a volunteer librarian.
