Margery Hoffman Smith was born in 1888 to a prominent family in Portland, Oregon.
She became a leading supporter of the arts, both in Portland and later in San Francisco, where she lived with her husband Ferdinand C. Smith, a partner in the brokerage house of Merrill, Lynch, Pearce, Fenner and Smith. In the 1930s Mrs. Smith worked with the Works Progress Administration, supervising the hand craft work carried out for Timberline Lodge. Her later contributions to the Portland Art Museum and the Oregon School of Arts and Crafts greatly enhanced both institutions.
