She attended Utah State University and later became the director of the Uintah County Library. She established the Regional History Center, and retired as library director to develop the center. Doris Burton has authored several books, including Blue Mountain Folksand Silver Stars and Jail Bars, and is the associate editor of the Outlaw Trail History Journal.
