Born in Bloomington, Indiana, on November 4, 1868, Dan V. Stephens attended Valparaiso College in Indiana. He settled in Fremont, Nebraska, where he taught school and studied law. He became the superintendent of schools in Dodge County, Nebraska, from 1890 to 1894. Stephens also authored several books, including Silas Cobb, Phelps and His Teacher and Passing of the Buffalo. He farmed, published, and worked in manufacturing and banking during this time.
Stephens served as a delegate to the Democratic National Convention in 1904, 1908, 1920, 1924, and 1932. When James P.
