Biography from AskART:
| Born in LaPorte, Colorado, she showed early art talent. Her drawings when she was age 13 were used as advertising illustrations in the Prosser, Washington newspapers. In 1910, she moved to Seattle to do fashion illustrations, and in 1915 to New York to study at the Pratt Institute and the Art Students League. She returned to Washington and graduated in 1925 with an MFA from the University of Washington.
In 1926, she settled in Providence, Rhode Island with her husband, a professor at Brown University. Her work was shown regularly at the Providence Art Club between 1927 and 1954; she also exhibited at the Seattle Society of Fine Arts, Northwest Artists, and the Newport Art Association. A posthumous exhibition of her work was held at the Rhode Island School of Design.
