After graduating from Eisenhower High School in 1967, she moved to Beatrice, Nebraska and Washington, D.C., where her husband worked in politics and she raised their children. They moved to Spokane, Washington in 1980. In Spokane, she continued her studies at Eastern Washington University graduating with her Bachelor of Arts in 1985 and her Masters of Arts in 1987, also at EWU. Her focus was in art, history, and women’s studies. After completing her graduate work at EWU, she enrolled in the American Studies program at Washington State University, but did not finish her PhD.
