Arthur was born on July 6, 1930 in Alliance, Nebraska to Arthur and Myrtle Feagins. He graduated from Alliance High School in 1948. It was there he met and ultimately married Glenna Mae Brock to whom he was married March 24, 1949. Arthur attended college at Valparaiso Tech in Indiana then returned to Scottsbluff, Nebraska working as a disc jockey at a local radio station going by the name “Flop Along Feagins”.

He enlisted in the Air Force during the Korean War working in communications eventually rising to the rank of Second Lieutenant. After five years of service to his country, Arthur returned to Lincoln, Nebraska working at the local TV station as a camera operator. While in Lincoln, Arthur and Glenna became parents welcoming Brian Arthur and Eric Alan in 1960 and 1961 respectively. Arthur moved the family to Garland, Texas in 1967 to work for Collins Radio as a technical writer. Later he moved to Prescolite Controls from which he retired at age 74.
