Born in Kenosha, Wisconsin, Barbara played at third base for the Kenosha Comets and Battle Creek Belles clubs in a span of two seasons from 1950–1951. She did not have individual records or additional information was incomplete at the time of the request.[1][3]
She died in 2003 in Superior, Wisconsin, at the age of 69.[4]
The All-American Girls Professional Baseball League folded in 1954, but there is a permanent display at the Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum at Cooperstown, New York since 1988 that honors the entire league rather than any individual figure.[5]
