Over more than six decades, she authored several books and dozens of magazine articles, among them Steamboats in the Timber (1952), about the steamboat trade on Lake Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, before World War I; Untamed Olympics: The Story of a Peninsula (1954); Lost Mines and Treasures of the Pacific Northwest (1957); Northwest Disaster: Avalanche and Fire (1960); and Treasure Hunting Northwest (1971). Her last book, An Olympic Mountain Enchantment, was published in 1989.
During her early years, she lived in Spokane and on farms near Lake Coeur d’Alene. She graduated from Spokane’s Lewis and Clark High School in 1932, and Northwestern Business College two years later. She subsequently took writing classes at the University of Washington and became an assistant editor of Washington State Journal of Nursing in Seattle (1949 to 1952).
