She was an award-winning reporter for the Minneapolis Tribune for seven years before becoming active in Democratic-Farmer-Labor (DFL) Party politics. Joseph worked on one of Hubert Humphrey’s early campaigns, and served as vice chair of the Minnesota DFL and vice-chair of the Democratic National Committee in the 1960s and ‘70s.. In 1978, President Carter appointed Joseph ambassador to the Netherlands, where she served until 1981. Hum
