Berry published many children's books from the 1930s to the 60s, and worked as an author, illustrator, and editor.

In that year, Anne Dempster Kyle's The Apprentice of Florence, illustrated by Berry, won the same award.

She also illustrated several of her husband Best's works, one of which, Garram the Hunter: A Boy of the Hill Tribes, also won a Newbery Honor.

She also edited at least one publication, Walter and Marion Havighurst's 1949 children's historical novel Song of the Pines.
