Raised on a poultry ranch, Herb was born, reared and educated in Petaluma, graduating from Petaluma High School. Following high school, he enlisted in the US Navy during World War II, attaining the rank of Lieutenant JG. He then attended Cal Poly and graduated with a degree in poultry husbandry. It was during this time, he met the love of his life, Barbara. They married on June 27, 1948, and enjoyed nearly 64 years of marriage. Herb, along with his brother Paul, worked together in the hatchery business, then the real estate, establishing Bundesen Real Estate in 1963 in Petaluma.
