Should anyone not know Todd Palin, this bio differs greatly from our board realist Kenneth.

Palin was born and raised in Dillingham, Alaska to James F. "Jim" and Blanche Palin (née Roberts). [4] [5] Palin has Yup'ik (from a great-grandmother), Dutch, and English ancestry. [6] [7]

In 1982, Palin graduated from Wasilla High School, which is the same alma mater of his wife and their eldest two children, son Track and daughter Bristol. He has taken some college courses but does not have a degree. [5]

Career Edit
Palin was a union member and belonged to the United Steelworkers union. [8]

For eighteen years, he worked for BP in the North Slope oil fields of Alaska. In 2007, in order to avoid a conflict of interest that related to his wife's position as governor, he took a leave [9] from his job as production supervisor, when his employer became involved in natural gas pipeline negotiations with his wife's administration. [5] Seven months later, because the family needed more income, Todd returned to BP. In order to avoid potential conflict of interest, this time, he accepted a non-management position as a production operator. [2] [9] He resigned from his job on September 18, 2009, with the stated reason as a desire to spend more time with his family. [10]

He is also a commercial salmon fisherman at Bristol Bay on the Nushugak River. [5]
