She was born in Blanding, Utah on August 23, 1920 to William R. and Neta Washburn Young. She was the oldest of eight children. Her brothers, Richard, Harold, and Kendall, along with her sister, Dorothy, all preceeded her in death. She was the last, even though she was the oldest child, to die.
Gene attended schools in Blanding, Utah and later graduated from BYU with a degree in Art. It was at BYU that Gene met her future husband, LaVerle Thomas Hacking, from Cedar Fort, Utah.

She worked at various jobs, including twenty-three years as librarian at the Blanding Branch of the San Juan County Library. She retired in 1985.
