Dean Warren has had a distinguished and varied career. As a young veteran of the Bikini Atom bomb tests, he attended UCLA, The London School of Economics, and Harvard. While in London, he and two other graduate students drove from London to New Delhi, India. Later, he sold Lockheed Aircraft in Southwest Asia and was promoted to Director of Marketing for Lockheed International. The State Department then lured him to run Program Planning for the Agency of International Development. He finished his working career as Director of Strategic Planning for Lockheed Martin Electronics and Missiles Group in Orlando, Florida.
