Judith was born in Wales, trained as a Registered Nurse and emigrated to Canada to work as a nurse about 50 years ago.

She entered an Anglican convent in 1964 and was a  nun for 16 years.  In 1980, she left the convent and returned to work as an R. N. in a hospital setting.

In 1990, Judith retired from nursing in order to get her writing career underway. She took some correspondence courses on writing;  wrote articles for local newspapers and  Canadian magazines; she had short stories and poems published in anthologies.
