She converted to Catholicism in 1900, and entered the Society of the Sacred Heart as a postulant when she was thirty-one. She was a strong-willed and intelligent woman, and used both these gifts to generously make the sacrifices that the Lord wished of her daily. F.A. Forbes authored a considerable amount of books based on the saints, including <i>St. John Bosco: Friend of Youth</i>, <i>St. Monica</i>, <i>St. Catherine of Sienna</i>, <i>St. Benedict</i>, and <i>The Gripfast Series of English Readers</i>. She died in 1936.
