After working for the Provincial Archives of Southern Jutland and then those of Zealand, in 1958 she was engaged by the National Archives where she developed a legendary competence in documenting historical records, in particular the archives of Christian II, integrating sources from Stockholm and Oslo. The corresponding registry titled München-Samlingen was published in 1969 as Volume 15 of Vejledende Arkivregistraturer.
