The daughter of James Lewis Morris and Mary Agnes Menzies, both of Scottish descent, she was born Grace MacFarlane Morris in Pembroke and studied at Branksome Hall in Toronto.

Craig went on to study at the Ontario College of Art. She was a long-time member of the Toronto Heliconian Club. Her work was included in a 1957 exhibition by the Ontario Society of Artists.

In 1981, she published a memoir ''But This is Our War''.
