She worked as a teacher in [Mosjøen](/source/Mosj%C3%B8en), got married in 1966 and had five children. The family eventually moved to several locations all over Norway.[1]

She was a part of the Socialist Left Party from its inception in 1975, at the time residing in [Holtålen](/source/Holt%C3%A5len_Municipality).[2] From the late 1970s, the family resided in [Flora](/source/Flora_Municipality) where Heir was a teacher at Krokane school.
