Mary Ladd (Binford) Bruner was born in Hancock County, IN. She graduated from Earlham College in 1877 and was a nurse for several years. She then enrolled in the Woman's Hospital Medical College in Chicago, IL, and graduated with her medical degree in 1885.

She practiced medicine in the Walnut Ridge and Blue River communities until her marriage in 1888 to Dr. Charles K. Bruner, when they moved to Greenfield. She continued to practice medicine until a few years before her death. Her skills as a doctor became particularly important to the community during WWI when the majority of the male doctors were in service.

She was a birth right Quaker and a charter member of Greenfield Friends meeting and taught Sunday School. She was a graduate and a trustee of Earlham College for a number of years.

She was survived by two sons, five grandchildren, one great grandchild and one brother.
