Ruth was born in 1898 and lived to be 103 years old. She began writing Christian fiction when her mother, Grace Livingston Hill, passed away and left her current novel unfinished. Ruth finished her mother’s book and went on to write six more novels. When Ruth’s minister husband passed away only twenty years into their marriage, Ruth began teaching and went back to college. When she graduated, she started a Christian school in Pinellas County, Florida in 1952. At the age of 70, Ruth went to Nairobi, Africa and taught for eight years. She wrote a nonfiction book based on the curriculum she taught in Africa. She continued to teach weekly Bible studies until she was well into her nineties.
