Following high school, she worked as a secretary for nearly fifty years with many large firms, eventually retiring from California Federal Bank in Los Angeles in 1990. She enjoyed playing scrabble, knitting and crocheting scarfs and afghans, which attributed to her instructing craft classes in a senior center in California.
