She was born on June 19, 1936, in Polk County, Nebraska and graduated from Thayer High School in 1954 and from University of Nebraska-Lincoln in home economics education in 1969. She was a former and current member of many agriculture organizations and winner of agriculture awards.

[edit] State Legislature
She was elected in 1994 to represent the 24th Nebraska legislative district and reelected in 1998 and 2002. She currently sits on the Education, and Rules committees, the Education Commission of the States, vice chairman of the Natural Resources committee and chairing the Nebraska Retirement Systems committee. Since Nebraska voters passed Initiative Measure 415 in 2001 limiting state senators to two terms after 2001, she is unable run for reelection barring a court challenge of the measure.
