Miss Boody is a native of Brookline and received the A.B. degree from Radcliffe in 1899, and the A.M. degree from Columbia in 1912. She has studied for one winter in the American School for Classical Studies in Rome, and for one summer in the University of Cambridge, England. She taught for nine years in the Cambridge School for Girls, Cambridge (formerly the Gilman School), for two years in Miss Madeira's Private School, Washington, and has been for two years head of The Charlton School, New York. She was treasurer of the Radcliffe College Alumnae Association from 1902 to 1905, and second vice-president of the association from 1905 to 1907. In October, 1912, she was elected an associate of Radcliffe College for a term of three years, on the nomination of the alumnae.
