Dale Peterson Dale, the latest in a long line of distinguished ER presidents, is best known through the many well written articles he has contributed to the ER newsletter over the years. The articles always offer interesting perspectives, but are never too serious. His humor has rescued many a conversation from becoming too serious, but he also always has something to say that is worth listening to. Dale was a sprinter in college, but has doggedly made the transition to long distance, running in the middle of the pack. As he leaves the presidency, he will take up a turn in the rotation of editors that publish the newsletter. A good fit.
