She was born September 13, 1941 in Houlton, Maine, daughter of Eldridge Elmer and Georgia (Estabrook) Ingraham.
    She grew up in South Portland and graduated from South Portland High School, Gorham State Teachers College, and the University of New Hampshire. She taught school in York Beach and South Portland before becoming a founding partner and teacher in the Pied Piper Nursery School in Scarborough.
