Growing up in West Point, Nebraska, Leila Stahl had an invalid mother and educated newspaper editor. She graduated from high school at the age of 16 but was unable to attend college immediately, and assisted her father at the newspaper, setting type and interviewing travelers when the train would stop at their station. Eventually she went to the University of Nebraska at Lincoln where she met Howard Buffett. They married as soon as he graduated and settled in Omaha.
