White graduated fourth in her Bryn Mawr College in 1914. She started out at The New Yorker in 1925, six months after its inception, reading unsolicited manuscripts for two hours a day, but soon moved to full-time work.

After marrying White (who had worked for her at The New Yorker) in 1929, she became known as Katherine S. White[1].
