The Ruth Fielding series came onto the children's book market in 1913 and lasted for 22 years and 30 volumes. Millie graduated from the University of Iowa, then State University of Iowa, in 1925 with a degree in English. She went to New York after seeing an ad in a trade publication for writers. She met with Edward Stratemeyer, but he did not have any work for her at that time. After going back to Iowa and back to school to get her Masters in Journalism, she was contacted by Edward with the chance to pick up writing books for the Ruth Fielding series.
