Apart from serving as an officer in the U.S. Army, he also spent 31 years with the Seattle School District. In 2008, he retired and pursued his passions in archaeology, art, history, mythology, and writing. The last led to the publication of his mythology-inspired novel Polyxena.

Allenger was born in Turin, Poland, to a German father and Austrian mother. In 1951, they moved to the United States and he spent his early childhood in Glendive, Montana.

He then moved to Livington after leaving his school halfway through his 8th grade.

Allenger graduated from Eastern Washington University with a bachelor’s degree in Political Science and also earned his Master of Arts degree from the University of Arkansas while stationed at Ramstein Air Base in Germany, courtesy of its overseas extension program.

The author received his higher education from Eastern Washington State College, graduating with BA in Political Science in 1966. Both in 1962 and 1966, he had a draft board looming over him, so he decided to voluntarily join the college’s ROTC program.
