Truman Warner was born on January 2, 1920 to Truman Warner Sr. and Eve Bratton, healthy baby boy of 7 and a half pounds. He was an interesting child; before he was old enough to attend he stole a book and made a mad dash to the local school, trying to join the older kids in their education. His young reasoning was that if he had a book, the teachers had to let him into school.

First attending Lincoln Ave School, Warner continued to New Street School, Main Street School, Danbury High School, and eventually Danbury State Teacher’s College. Throughout his life, Warner will repeatedly show his love for education and learning, which will eventually turn into his love for history and anthropology, which will grow during his times overseas and as a professor at Western Connecticut State University.
