She came to Manila in early 1941 to join her husband where she was an English teacher at the University of the Philippines when the war broke out in the Philippines. For a year and a half, she and her husband (Ron Johnson) lived in the mountains and jungles of Luzon, hiding with reclusive mountain tribes who sheltered and helped them in their daily struggle to evade the Japanese.

When they were finally captured, they were first kept in horrific Japanese prisons before being transferred to the internment camp at Santo Tomas, and, later, to Los Banos.
