Born in Toronto , Ontario , Bowen was educated at the University of Toronto , where she earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1964.

Bowen's mystery novels feature Joanne Kilbourn , a widowed mother, political analyst and university professor who finds herself occasionally involved in criminal investigations in various parts of Saskatchewan.[2] Many have been adapted as Canadian television movies by Shaftesbury Films .
Several of her plays have been produced,[3] including Dancing in Poppies , an adaptation of Beauty and the Beast , The Tree and an adaptation of Peter Pan , all premiering at the Globe Theatre in Regina. Her radio play Dr. Dolittle was broadcast on CBC Radio in 2006. She wrote The World According to Charlie D. ,[4] a radio play focusing on the radio talk show host from her Joanne Kilbourn mysteries, broadcast on CBC Radio in 2007. A follow-up episode about Charlie D. aired in August 2008 as part of the WorldPlay series,[5] airing on public radio networks in six English-speaking countries. In 2010, the first of a series of mystery novellas about Charlie D.[6] was published.
