The son of Crawford Nalder, who later served as the state's Deputy Premier, Nalder was born in Wagin, a small town in the Great Southern region of Western Australia.[1] Like his father, he went on to board at Wesley College, Perth, graduating in 1954.[2] Nalder was elected to parliament at the 1986 state election, but died of cancer in March 1987, aged 49, having served just over a year.[3][4] His death necessitated a by-election, which was won by National Party candidate Bob Wiese.[5] Nalder's son, Dean Nalder, is the current Liberal Party member for Alfred Cove,[6] while his niece, Karen Middleton, is a political correspondent for SBS Television.[7]
