She won the Bardic Crown at the National Mod in Edinburgh in 1951 with a tribute to Ben Eval. She was engaged to well-known South Uist bard Donald John MacDonald. However, she was reluctant to lose her independence and broke off the engagement in 1954. Although MacDonald married the next year, she never did - but remained a major influence on his work.
