Marion moved from the East Coast to Tucson in 1941 with her young son Harold.In 1945, on a visit to Ted DeGrazia’s first Tucson studio, Marion met the artist for the first time. As she recalled, his first words to her were “Where have you been?” In 1947, the couple married in the jungles of Mexico.
