After graduating from beauty school in Minneapolis, Minn., She and her friend, Nell Johnson, opened up The Magic Mirror Beauty Shop in Austin. Years later, Dorothy opened her own beauty shop in her home. She was known for serving coffee and pastries to her customers each day.
In 1936, Dorothy met her husband, Harry Hook. They were engaged at Christmas in 1938, and married on Sept. 2, 1940 at the First Baptist Church in Austin. They attended First Baptist, and later Grace Baptist Church of Austin.

Dorothy was assured that, in accepting Jesus as her Savior, when she died and left this body- she would have a home in heaven and an eternal body. 2 Corinthians 5:1.
