Babbitt Sr. and Viola Passey Babbitt, she was born on March 31, 1920 in Mesa, Arizona. The family story is that Viola, against her husband's wishes, chose “Betty Jo” for the birth certificate. Joe, astonished, baptized her “Elizabeth Viola”. She attended St Anthony's elementary school, Flagstaff; Immaculate Heart High School, Hollywood, CA; Arizona State Teachers College, Flagstaff; and completed her undergraduate degree in Education at the University of Arizona, Tucson.
