Lucinda was born in Atlanta, Illinois and moved with her family at age 15 to Arizona.
She had her first story published in Collier’s Magazine when she was 9 years old.
In 1937, when she was a junior at ASC, Flagstaff (now NAU), she won the grand prize in a national collegiate writing contest (the Panhellenic Essay Contest). The prize was an al-expense paid trip to New York City where she appeared on radio shows (before TV), and was introduced to those “in the know” in the publishing field.
That girl from small-town Arizona came home, packed her bags and moved to New York City, and never looked back. There she worked for NBC radio; writing scripts for daytime radio shows.
After several years, her work took her to Chicago where she met and married Willard Greiner.
The two of them moved to San Francisco in the early 1950’s where she continued writing for numerous magazines.
Lucinda and Willard retired to Sedona in 1976 and subsequently she has written four books and articles for various magazines and for her church publications, The Journal, The Sentinel and The Christian Science Monitor.
