BackgroundBorn and raised in Boise, Idaho, Coon attended local public schools, and graduating from the University of Idaho at Moscow in 1925.[1] He pursued various occupations in banking and agriculture, and was the owner-operator of a cattle ranch near Keating, Oregon, from 1929 to 1950. In 1937, Coon married Opal Kerfort.[2] From 1951 to 1952 he engaged in the real estate business.[1] Political careerIn 1950, Coon was elected to represent Baker County in the Oregon State Senate, where the Republican served only during the 1951 session of the legislature.[3] Toward the end of his term in the state Senate, Coon successfully ran for election to Congress as a Republican from Oregon's Second District.[1] The two-term congressman was narrowly re-elected after a challenge from Democrat, Al Ullman, who ultimately defeated him in the election of 1956. Sam Coon served in the United States House of Representatives from January 3, 1953 to January 3, 1957.[1] After politicsAfter serving as Deputy Director for the International Cooperation Administration in Lima, Peru, from 1957 to 1959, Coon took up residence in Laguna Hills, California.
