In those early years, she held a variety of jobs, ultimately joining the faculty of Antioch College, where she was a student advisor in the Education Abroad Department until the mid-’70s.
Concurrently, for many years Mac was the organist and intermittent choir director for the United Methodist Church, continuing her membership there until her death.

She became a Usui Reiki practitioner and also earned a Master of Humanities degree in philosophy from the University of Dayton.
In retirement, both she and Art enjoyed attended many Elderhostels, particularly in the Southwest (motoring there in a yellow VW camper bus, he at the wheel, she reading aloud to him on the journey), as well as participating in World Future Society conventions.
