    Mrs. Hanley was born in Norman, OK, and moved with her parents to Okemah, OK, at age 2. She was graduated from Okemah High School in 1947.

    She attended Cottey College in Nevada, MO, and was graduated with a bachelor of arts degree from East Central Oklahoma State University in Ada. She also had attended Texas Christian University and Texas Woman's University.
