WHO WAS D.S. BAKER?
Dorsey Syng Baker was a visionary young doctor who moved to Walla Walla in 1861 and quickly set to work helping the town prosper. A wise sage who saw possibilities where others might not, he became an early architect of Eastern Washington by bringing in railroads, education, a mercantile and a bank that propelled the region forward.
Today, his entrepreneurial zeal and love of community still serve as the bedrock of Baker Boyer, the bank he co-founded to help grow, protect and secure family legacies for generations.
