Dan Hendrickson was born in Sheridan Wyoming near the rustic Big Horn mountain range in 1962 to Carl and Helen Hendrickson. Dan went to school in the Sheridan School District, graduating from Sheridan High School in 1981. He spent his athletic time participating in boxing, martial arts, wrestling and a little track. His father, Carl, owned a small eight-lane bowling alley that he ran until Dan was 12 years old. After losing the business to the bank, he was forced to return to school and finish his masters in English.
Dan picked up on his father’s love of the written word and enrolled in Casper Community College in 1982, majoring in journalism. Although he found that he had an aptitude for investigative reporting, he decided that his desires lay in other areas. He went on to do much volunteer Christian ministry work throughout the United States for most of his adult life and continues to pursue those endeavors. During that time, he gained another degree in Practical Theology and, throughout his many ministry assignments, worked several secular jobs. Most notable were his auto detailing endeavors.
He also has devoted much of his life to studying the martial arts. He has black belts in 2 styles, Tang Soo Do, Tae Kwon Do, and a high brown belt in Han Foo Wa. He has instructed at martial arts schools off and on for over 20 years. He and his wife Cheryl have owned three different detailing businesses throughout the country, the last of which they still run. Recently, he has returned to his passion of telling stories and has several books in the process of being published.
