!BIRTH: On the family homestead in Lucas Township near Cottonwood.
EDUCATION: Luther College, Decorah, Iowa; Luther Seminary, St. Paul, MN.
OCCUPATION: Singer, voice teacher, music director (vocal).
NOTES: From the (ORWOLL DOC 'A') we find that 'Hib', as he was known,
apparantly following the custom of many Norwegian families encouraging
one son to enter the ministry, attended and completed Luther Seminary
in St Paul, Minnesota but was not destined, apparantly, to be a
minister. While attending the Seminary, two daughters were born to
Hib and Ada: Sylvia in 1917 and June in 1919. Hib had a fine tenor
voice and after the Seminary went to Milan, Italy to study voice and
prepare for a career in opera. However, a career in opera eluded him
and he spent his life as a teacher of voice and a coach, dividing his
time between the Minneapolis College of Music, Gustavus Adolphus College
at St. Peter, and Concordia College at Moorhead, Minnesota. Hib Dahl
was, perhaps, a bit of a character. He had a zest for life and a love
for people . . . wherever his life touched others it added "a touch of
class". See (ORWOLL DOC 'A') for more details.
