She was born Dec. 3, 1952 in Ashland at the old Siskiyou Lodge during a snowstorm to Flora Catherine Northcutt and Stephen Thomas Harris. She grew up in Central Point, attended local schools through her junior year of high school before her family moved to Keno in 1969. In 1971, she graduated from Henley High School.
