Gloria Swegman Brundage began her career at WRC Washington. She received her newspaper training as a member of the Washington Newspaper Guild School for young reporters at The Washington Post, assigned to White House correspondent Edward T. Folliard.
From 1945 to 1949 Gloria was farm editor on the Topeka Daily Capital and Women's Program WIBW Topeka. Coming to Columbia University on scholarships, Gloria received her B.S. from the School of General Studies, and her M.S. from the Columbia School of Journalism.
