Steven R. Dolby

Steven R. Dolby was born in Port Arthur, Texas in 1945, the second of seven children. During his childhood, Dolby’s family moved frequently as his father’s career as an Air Force pilot required. In his youth, Dolby attended both private Catholic and public schools. He was drafted in 1967, attended Officer Candidate School, and served in Germany in the US Army as a First Lieutenant in a nuclear-capable artillery battalion. Following his service, he graduated from California State University, Northridge with a Bachelor of Science degree in Business/Marketing and went to work for Trans World Airlines where he managed Boeing 747 flights to Europe, the Middle East, and the Far East. Following his years with Trans World Airlines, Dolby became an investment and financial advisor, a career that took him through over four decades. He is currently retired and has been married to his wife, Yvonne, for 45 years. They live in Phoenix, Arizona and have two children, three grandchildren, and a Labrador Retriever.
