Olson was born July 15, 1935, in Dubuque, IA, to Ernest and Ardis (Thompson) Olson. At the age of ten, her family moved to Omaha where she finished high school. She then attended the University of Nebraska until she married her husband of 59 years, Dr. Courtney W. Anderson. The couple moved to Chicago where Courtney was attending medical school at Northwestern. Upon his completion, the family moved back to SD to live. Myrna became active in 7th District and the South Dakota Medical Alliance. Myrna was active in the Republican Party and managed successful State House campaigns for her mother-in-law. Myrna was co-owner and manager of five book stores over the course of 20 years. In 1975, Courtney began a full-time military career and the couple moved their family to Washington, D.C. Myrna was a very supportive wife and mother at each base they were stationed. In 1981, they returned to South Dakota where Myrna obtained a Real Estate Sales/Broker’s license and began to manage the family’s residential and commercial holdings.

Throughout her life, Myrna wrote and illustrated a number of brochures for her husband’s medical practice and assisted in the publication of The Bethany Cookbook. Over the last twenty-five years, Myrna and Courtney divided their time between Arizona and South Dakota.
