Her parents were Robert and Emmy Wenzel, who were a German diplomat and a journalist. Growing up in New York, she graduated from Columbia University and subsequently studied at Trinity College, Dublin.
Her two marriages were both to medical officers of the British Army. Her first husband died of pleurisy shortly after arriving in Malaya near the beginning of World War II. Days after her second marriage, to Philip Bloom, both she and he were incarcerated as prisoners of war after the Japanese capture of Singapore, and Freddy terrible conditions in captivity until their release at the war's end in 1945.
