Biography[]

Gale H. Stalker was born in Long Eddy in Sullivan County, New York on November 7, 1889. He studied at Scranton Business College (now Lackawanna College), and moved to Elmira, New York.^[1]^[2]

Stalker was active in lumber and oil and gas businesses, banking and other ventures. During World War I Stalker was nicknamed "Tent Peg" because his lumber company filled a contract to provide millions of tent poles and pegs to the United States Army.^[3]
