Abandoning the government jobs she had held throughout the 1950s, she opened Hospitality House in 1959. She represented Ward 6 on the D.C. Council from 1974 to 1990. Remaining active in the community of breast cancer survivors, she became founder of Hospitality House and Health Action Information network.
