Biography
Crow was born in Nampa, Idaho in 1941. She was an only child and grew up learning to ride horses. Crow participated in competitive riding, winning the titles of Snake River Stampede Rodeo Queen in 1959 and Miss Rodeo Idaho in 1960, and she was a runner up in the Miss Rodeo America 1960 competition. Crow graduated from Northwest Nazarene College with a bachelor's in English literature in 1964 and afterwards, she taught English and drama in high school.
Crow founded an alternative Wesleyan-Anglican church called Epworth Chapel on the Green.
Work
Crow promoted her nonfiction book, Recipes for the Protein Diet in 1972. A reviewer for the Idaho Free Press felt that there was good variety among the recipes and the pictures were realistic and "mouth-watering."
Crow's novel, Glastonbury: The Novel of Christian England, won the best historical novel of 1992 from the National Federation of Press Women. Her work has been compared to Veronica Black and Carol Anne O'Marie by Library Journal.
