Dr. Harvey was born July 27, 1916 in Stockton, California. After retiring from the Navy as an officer with 27 years of service, he worked in education, becoming the Superintendent of Schools in several California school districts. Upon retirement as Superintendent of the Alemeda County School System, he continued for 15 years as a consultant for school districts when filling administrative positions or they needed a fiscal study of their district.
