Dierks earned a B.A. in journalism and mass communication from the UI In 1970. After a brief stint with American Airlines, he began his career at the UI Foundation (now the University of Iowa Center for Advancement), where he has worked to garner support for the UI for more than 45 years. Dierks initiated the institution's planned and major giving program in 1973, supervising its management and development until 1999, when he was named assistant vice president for principal gifts. Dierks served in this capacity until the fall of 2005, when he was named vice president. He continues to carry out substantial principal gift activity for the UI Center for Advancement.
