She taught grade school in Worthington and also taught in Bexley. A poet and musician, she authored a children's booklet "My Five Little Songs", which was used in public schools.

The accompanying clipping from the unidentified publication indicates that Mrs. Pheobe Chapman identified many of the students, some from the classes of 1902 and 1903. The back row includes Morgan Milne (far left), Frank Welling (second from left), George Snow (sixth from left), Harry Clark (eighth from left), and Sam Flickinger (ninth from left).
