In 1918, her father, a railway employee, died of influenza epidemic.

She started working for a public utility and rose to the position of advertising manager, which was unusual for a woman at that time.

She also served as the Ohio State Chairman of the Electric Light Association, campaigned for women's rights and improved working conditions in 1929.

Franklin lost his career and his investments as a result of the stock market crash in October last year.

In 1932, Rico discovered herself in a slump that he never recovered and committed suicide, but it was his most satisfying job in writing verse for the greeting card firm Gibson Greetings.

When several of her poems were read by Aladdin on the poetry segment of the Lawrence Welk television show, they gained a large audience in the 1960s. Since several printings, the demand for her poems has been so high that her books are now selling steadily, and she has been named as "America's most beloved inspirational poet laureate."

Helen Steiner Rice's books of inspirational poetry have now sold almost seven million copies.

Her poetry had a timeless appeal thanks to her strong religious faith and her ability to articulate deep emotion. Pope John Paul II, President Jimmy Carter and his wife Rosalynn were admirers of her artistry on the evening of April 23, 1981, a month before her 81st birthday, and was buried in Elmwood Cemetery in Lorain, Ohio.
