She was active in politics from high school, when she worked to register voters in a mayoral campaign. Political careerShe was a delegate to the GOP state convention in 1932 and ran for Congress in Utah on the Republican ticket in 1934, but lost.

During Dwight D. Eisenhower's campaign for president, Priest took charge of the women's division of the Republican National Committee and was credited with the successful drive to get out the women's vote, which totaled 52 percent of Eisenhower's victory margin.[1] She served as Treasurer of the United States under President Eisenhower from January 28, 1953, to January 29, 1961, during which time her signature appeared on all U.S. currency. In 1967 she became national chairman of the Easter Seals. On June 20, 1961, in Los Angeles, California, she married Sidney William Stevens.[3][4] In 1967 she was elected as a Republican to the office of California State Treasurer, serving two terms from 1967 until her death in 1975. She died of cancer in Santa Monica, California on June 23, 1975.[5] She was buried in the Wasatch Lawn Memorial Park Cemetery, Salt Lake City, Utah.

Quotations"We women don't care too much about getting our pictures on money as long as we can get our hands on it." "We seldom stop to think how many people's lives are entwined with our own. It is a form of selfishness to imagine that every individual can operate on his own or can pull out of the general stream and not be missed." "The world is round and the place which may seem like the end may also be the beginning." "I'm often wrong, but never in doubt."[7] References and notes1. ^1 {{cite journal|last1=Reeve|first1=W.
