Mason earned a BA degree from Montclair St. University in New Jersey in 1941, and an MS from Oregon St. University in 1960. She was an expert on the flora of the Wallowa Mts., and was also interested in wetland plants and weedy invasives of the Willamette Valley.

In 1979 she established the Georgia Mason OSU Herbarium Fund with an endowment that supports student employment at the Herbarium in Corvallis.
