She was part of the Boston Museum Stock Company. As Mrs. Guy Currier, she established Four Wind Farm, later known as Mariarden, an outdoor theater and theater training program.
An ally of Calvin Coolidge, Currier had social distinction, wealth, personal charm and broad circle of friends which Coolidge lacked, and which would have a lasting impact on his political career. He was a Democrat. From 1922 to 1930, Currier was a Trustee of the Boston Public Library.
Currier died at his summer home in Peterborough, New Hampshire, at the age of 62. His son, also named Guy Currier (died 1958), graduated from Yale University and Cambridge University.
