She trained at the Art Institute of Chicago*, and studied with William Merritt Chase, Kenneth Hayes Miller, and Charles Hawthorne. She also studied in Paris. She married Dr. Albert Palmer of Chicago, and he encouraged her art career. She exhibited annually at the Art Institute for nearly three decades and during that time, won most of the major awards and prizes. Highly active in Chicago, she was the first woman elected president of the Chicago Society of Artists (1918). She was also a member of the Chicago Art Guild, the Chicago Arts Club, and exhibited with these groups as well as the National Association of Women Painters and Sculptors. The Palmers had a summer home in Provincetown, Massachusetts, and were much a part of the art community there. She was widowed at age fifty three and spent even more time after that in her Cape Cod studio. Children of the Portuguese fishermen and simple activities by the sea were favorite subjects of hers.
