Myron was born on September 8, 1947, in Aberdeen, South Dakota, to Isadore and Viola (Just) Meidinger. He was raised on the family farm north of Zeeland, North Dakota. He attended Frieda Country School through the eighth grade and graduated from Zeeland High School in 1965. Following graduation, he attended North Dakota State University for one year before returning to the Wishek area.

During this time, Myron worked as a carpenter and held positions as a police officer for the City of Wishek and the Nickisch Funeral Home and Company. He also served with the Wishek unit of the North Dakota National Guard. He later continued his education at Valley City State College, where he earned a degree in Business.
