She graduated from Swarthmore College and earned a PhD in Psychology from Bryn Mawr College. Her first job was teaching at Wilson College in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania.
She married Allan Mowatt, an electrical engineer, in 1939. His Westinghouse job brought the couple to Pittsburgh, where Marian taught at Carnegie Tech, now Carnegie Mellon University. Later they moved to the Boston area. They adopted a boy and a girl.
After a brief move to Sandwich, New Hampshire, Marian taught at Wheaton College in Norton, Massachusetts. In 1960, she moved with the children, Allan and Janna to Seattle, where she worked at Community Psychiatric Clinic. Later she opened her office for the practice of clinical psychology, and taught part-time at the University of Washington. An interesting part of her practice was screening candidates for the Seattle Police Department.
Marian traveled to conferences and seminars in the United States, Russia, Greece, France, Japan, Canada and the Bahamas. She wrote a book titled Divorce Counseling and co-authored A History of the Washington State Psychological Association.
