Wishman studied for a while at Hunter College where she studied several subjects including acting. She worked as a secretary and a movie booker until she met and married a man by the name of Jack Abrahms. After Abrahms died, Wishman wanted to do something in her life that would keep her busy instead of being a grieving widow.
