Virginia Francesca Fry's career began with a part-time job as a biology lab technician at Monterey Peninsula Community College (MPC), which later became full-time after her graduation. She was also an artist and became an active member of the Carmel Art Association in 1960. She was very passionate about her community and served on a variety of boards and commissions. Virginia was a board member of the Carmel Art Association, a City of Monterey Planning Commissioner and served on Monterey's Architectural Review Committee twice. She was the first woman, and first non-pilot, elected to the Monterey Peninsula Airport District Board in 1977. She was a member of the Fort Ord Restoration Advisory Board, the Fort Ord Coordinated Resource Management and Planning Team and served on the Fort Ord Technical Review Committee. In 1971, the State of California conferred on her a master's degree equivalent in fine art and California Community College life teaching credentials for fine art and biology. In 1971, she became a member of MPC's full-time faculty, teaching biology until she retired in June 1986. She continued to teach an occasional class in environmental science or biology at MPC until 1998.
