Dodd graduated as valedictorian of his class from Chicago's Dunbar Vocational High School in 1959. He received his B.A. degree in education from Chicago State University in 1963, and also took advanced courses at Northeastern Illinois University. Since 1971, after working for some years as an educator, Dodd worked in the insurance business as an independent agency affiliate of Allstate Insurance. Throughout this time, he served as president and CEO of Dodd's Insurance Agency. Dodd received numerous awards for his work in the insurance industry and was Allstate Insurance's leading sales agent for the Chicago Metro Region for over fifteen years.
