Sarah was the eldest of four daughters of Walter Emmet Painter and Harriet "Hattie" Angene Drake Painter.
"After graduating from the College of Wooster," [in Wooster, Ohio, where she grew up,] "she became the Librarian at the" [Ohio State Agricultural] Experiment Station. This helped her to decide to study for her degree in library science. In the fall of 1927 she went to Boston to enter Simmons Library School...." After graduation "Sarah accepted a position at Fairview Village near Cleveland as librarian at the high school. She stayed there for 21 years. When she left to come [to be a librarian] to the College of Wooster, she not only was H. S. Librarian, but also supervisor of the libraries in Fairview, which was rapidly becoming a city. She was a difficult person to replace." [Quoted from a page in the Painter Family Chronicles, a set of scrapbooks done by Sarah's next younger sister, Florence.]
When Sarah retired from the College of Wooster library in June of 1971, the Wooster Daily Record noted that the Painter family had been involved in the College of Wooster since 1909. Sarah continued to live in her parents' family home on Cleveland Ave, sharing it with her sister, Florence. The two were active in the community and maintained extensive family connections.
