Morgan went on to Liverpool University where she obtained an N.D.D., A.T.D. and B.A. Morgan has lived in a variety of places including Lancashire, Shropshire, Merseyside, North Wales, London and Peterborough and has spent a good deal of time overseas. At 21 she painted in the Place de Tetre with other students and exhibited with artists along the Seine. While in France she was inspired by the woods at Fontainebleau and the palace at Versailles. In more recent years she has spent time in Africa and U.S.A. Morgan was a teacher for twenty years and Head of Special Needs. She has a passion for knowledge and a love of books and while working as a teacher she wrote and illustrated for several publishers.
