She graduated from Austin High School and received her Bachelor of Arts degree in journalism and a Master of Arts degree in English from Texas Western College (UTEP). She has spent her entire professional career in El Paso in the fields of writing, journalism, public relations and as a local historian. She worked for the El Paso Times, El Paso Independent School District, El Paso Herald-Post and for UTEP. There, she worked in media relations and then became Associate Director of Texas Western Press at UTEP, serving until her retirement in 1990. She became Assistant Editor of the Roundup, the magazine of the Western Writers of America and served two years as president of that organization. She also was Assistant Editor of UTEP's Nova. Hamilton also edited publications (like the El Paso County Historical Society's Password), authored and published books. She is a Past Sheriff of the local Mt. Franklin Corral of the Westerners International and long time secretary-treasurer of the Pioneers Association of El Paso County. She has received the Phillip E.
