He was the father of actor Christian Bale and the husband of Gloria Steinem. Life and careerBale was born in South Africa to English parents. His father, Philip Bale, was a Royal Air Force pilot.[2] Bale grew up in England, Egypt, and the Channel Islands.[1] He worked as a commercial pilot and later ran a commuter airline in England.[3] His business activities included marketing imported jeans and skateboards.[1][3] Bale was an activist for environmental and animal rights causes. He served as a board member of The Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund and the Ark Trust,[3] which in 2002 became the Hollywood branch of the Humane Society of the United States.[4] He also served as a board member for World Education, Inc., an international non-profit organisation known for its work in educational development, located in Boston, Massachusetts. MarriagesBale was married three times. His first marriage to Sandra Kreunen in South Africa ended in 1964 after she filed for divorce when he returned to England to visit his mother.[5] His second marriage to Jenny James in England also ended in divorce. He had a daughter, Erin Bale Kreunen, from the first marriage, and three children from his second marriage: Louise, Sharon, and Christian, the last of whom became an actor. On 3 September 2000, he married the feminist writer, journalist, activist, and political leader Gloria Steinem. The wedding, in Oklahoma, was a private ceremony at the home of her friend Wilma Mankiller, the first female Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation.[6] At the time of the marriage, Bale had been facing deportation after overstaying his visa.[7] Both Steinem and Bale denied that Bale's immigration status was the motivation for the marriage.[7] Steinem had in the past been critical of the institution of marriage, saying that "marriage was the model for slavery law in this country".[8] She said of her change in attitude toward marriage, 'I didn't change. Marriage changed. We spent 30 years in the United States changing the marriage laws. If I had married when I was supposed to get married, I would have lost my name, my legal residence, my credit rating, many of my civil rights. That's not true any more. It's possible to make an equal marriage'.[9] DeathBale died of brain lymphoma on 30 December 2003, at the age of 62.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite news |first=Paul |last=von Zielbauer |title=David Bale, 62, Activist and businessman, Dies |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2004/01/01/national/01BALE.html |work=The New York Times |date=1 January 2004 |accessdate=30 June 2008}} 2. ^Christian Bale: The Inside Story of the Darkest Batman, by Harrison Cheung, Nicola Pittam, pg. 24, 2012 3. ^1 2 {{cite news |first=Mary |last=Rourke |title=Activist David Bale had commitment to Africa |url=http://seattletimes.com/html/nationworld/2001829381_baleobit04.html |work=The Seattle Times |date=4 January 2004 |accessdate=30 June 2008}} 4. ^{{cite press release |title=The Ark Trust, Inc. to Become Hollywood Office of the Humane Society of the U.S. Producer of Genesis Awards and Largest Animal Protection Organization Join Forces to Raise Awareness of Animal Protection Issues |agency=PR Newswire |date=27 August 2002 |url=http://www.accessmylibrary.com/coms2/summary_0286-25849404_ITM |accessdate=30 June 2008}} 5. ^Harrison Cheung, Nicola Pitman (2012).
