After graduation Dunham worked as a sales engineer for 10 years. He then attended Princeton Theological Seminary and was ordained an Episcopal priest. He served parishes in Southern California from 1962-73 and in New Mexico from 1974-86. He retired in Sun City West, Ariz., where he engaged in a number of activities including writing and publishing poetry. One of his poems was included in our 50th yearbook.
