A native of Memphis, Tennessee, Baker studied at the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore and had lessons with Hugh Breckenridge, Arthur Charles, and André Lhote.

In 1935 she received a prize from the Washington Society of Independent Artists, and in 1945 she received one from the Baltimore Museum of Art; in 1926 she won a fellowship gold medal from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. The Brooklyn Museum and the Phillips Collection are among museums holding examples of Baker's work. Among her pupils was Willem De Looper. Baker's papers are housed at the Archives of American Art at the Smithsonian Institution.
