She was the daughter of prominent Australian academic and essayist Sir Walter Murdoch. King's daily radio program was called the ABC Women's Session. In the late 1940s King was joined by Erica Underwood. The program was broadcast throughout WA and included music, live interviews and discussion on subjects from science and arts to cooking and parenting. It was based on the premise that women who were not in the paid workforce were thinking people with wide interests and concerns. King and Underwood travelled in regional WA in an ABC van meeting women who listened to the program. Her final program was broadcast in 1976.
