==Background==
Yetman was born in New Jersey, USA. His father was a minister for the Methodist Church. Following the onset of acute asthma, his family moved with him to the dry climate of southern Arizona when he was a teenager. They arrived in Duncan, Arizona in 1954 and then moved to Prescott in 1955 where he went to high school.〔Holub H. 2010. ( ''David Yetman — Southern Arizona’s ultimate Desert Rat'' ). Tucson Citizen June 2nd.〕 He gained three degrees in Philosophy from the University of Arizona including a Masters on B.F. Skinner (1966) and a PhD on Ludwig Wittgenstein ("Criteria: an essay in the philosophy of language", 1971).
Remaining in southern Arizona, in the 1970s he began trading carvings made by the Seri Indians of Sonora, Mexico and began to investigate their livelihoods and culture (Yetman 1988). He also worked in the Chiricahua Mountains. In 1977 he ran for political office and was elected to the Pima County Board of Supervisors, serving until 1988. He used this role to preserve public lands in and around Tucson. He then worked as Executive Director of the Tucson Audubon Society, and then from 1992, joined the University of Arizona’s Southwest Center as Research Social Scientist. His TV career as host of ''The Desert Speaks'' began in 2000.
Yetman lives in Tucson.
