She received private tutorials from Torleif Knaphus (q.v.) and was also employed by him to work on his monument "The Handcart Company," located on the Temple Square, Salt Lake City. She also studied with Millard Malin (q.v.), and again at the U of U under Avard Fairbanks (q.v.). Her work appears at the Springville Museum of Art plus many private collections. Exhibitions include Associated Utah Artists shows (ca. 1941 into 1990s). Alice Morrey Bailey created some works of authentic beauty. She was not only a fine figurative sculptor but an excellent portraitist in the third dimension as well as a writer of poetry. (b. August 21)
