Merriman was born in 1936 at Keefeton, a very small town near Muskogee in northeastern Oklahoma. His father was a farmer, for most of his life a sharecropper. When Richard was nine, the Merriman family migrated to the Wenatchee Valley in the state of Washington, looking for a better life. His first real job turned into a 28-year career, teaching both junior and senior high school English, along with high school journalism. Linda was also employed by the Okanogan School District as a secretary, retiring in 1994 after a 26-year career.
