]]> History/Biography:
Born in Kandiyohi County, Minnesota, 1991. He attended the Dental College at Northwestern University, Chicago, and opened a dental office in Glenwood, Minnesota where he first became politically active. He first served as mayor of the village and later as a member of the state legislature. In 1918, Shipstead was pitted against Andrew Volstead for Congress by the Nonpartisan League, but was ultimately defeated. Two years later the same organization put him forward for the Republican nomination for governor, but was defeated in a close race by J.A.O. Preus. From that race, Shipstead gained various acquaintances and prestige that helped him receive endorsement by the new Farmer-Labor Party two years later – a race he won against Frank Kellogg. As a member of the senate, he served as the chairman of the Printing Committee, member of Foreign Relations, Agriculture, Public Buildings, and Grounds, Pensions, and Joint Printing Committee of the House and Senate.
